Welcome to LGGS Library

The Library provides a service which actively seeks to support students and staff in the process of learning, teaching and personal development, through the provision of high quality information collections and related services.

We focus on developing student skills in the areas of finding and using information both in print and ICT based formats and to raise standards of literacy through encouraging students to gain a love and enjoyment of books and reading.
The school Library and Learning Resource Centre forms a valued central resource, providing study and research facilities as well as many additional services for all students and staff.

The Rose - LGGS Sixth Form Zine

Welcome to the home of The Rose!

The Rose is a bi-annual zine in which creative writers collaborate with artists in order to produce a collection of illustrated short stories and poems, centred around a theme - and this time, the theme is 'Fairytale Gothic'.

What is a zine?

A zine is a form of indie publishing in which creatives come together to produce a small-circulation magazine, giving voice to creative communities that might have otherwise slipped under the radar.

 

To get involved, please contact Miss Jackson by email or find her in the library!
