Library
The Ngakonui Valley School Library is one of the most modern and updated libraries in Taumarunui. We have approximately 3,800 books, and get in at least 500 new books each year. The books in our library are divided into five groups: picture books, sophisticated picture books, chapter books, non-fiction books and reference books. The reference books can't be taken out but can be read in the library. Also, our non-fiction books are sorted under the Dewey Decimal system. We have books from 000 - 999, for any project that might be done.
