Padgate Library
Our Local Library
We are lucky to have a library within our community which is available to us. Classes visit the library at least once a term and our children can borrow books to bring home to read. There are computers available for children and adults alike to use and if needed to print from for a small fee.
Location
Padgate Library is part of the Lysander Community High School complex - the library is on the left hand side of the school.
Parking
There is one disabled parking space in the adjoining school car park and further public car parking is available in the nearby shopping precinct.
Access
There is a ramp at the front of the library, leading to two sets of double doors. The library is on two levels, with a lift to the first floor. The lift has Braille pads, and a bell sounds when the doors open. There is an accessible toilet on the first floor and a hearing induction loop is available.
