 Facilities  



Gymnasium
You may use the gym during breaks when staff are available to supervise.
The timetable, detailing gym availability and activities offered, is posted on the student noticeboard. The gym is also used by students in Physical Education classes.


Library
The Library is available for individual research or private study every day and on Tuesday and Wednesday nights until approximately 6.30 pm.

Staff are available to help you with:
  • reference queries
  • use of the catalogue (OPAC)
  • location of resources
  • selection of appropriate resources
  • using the computers and other technology

You can use a wide range of resources for reference and borrowing including print materials (books, periodicals, vertical file information and newspapers).

You can also use the information and communications technology (CD-ROM, on-line databases, the Internet and videos).

You borrow the textbooks needed for various subjects each semester (or year) from Textbook Services within the Library.


Computing Resources
Computers and Internet access are provided at Thebarton to help you with your learning. You can use computers when working in a class or for doing your own College work or study. You can work in any room that is open and has a spare computer. You are given a set amount of time allocated for Internet use. This should be enough for normal study purposes. You can pay extra money if you use the Internet more. You are also allocated an amount of paper for each subject you are enrolled in. Additional internet time and printing can be purchased at the office.


Study Centre
We encourage you to use the Study Centre (located in the area between the Library and the Science building) to work individually or in small groups during your free lessons.

You can also get help with assignments from the teachers on duty. This help could be subject-based or they can help with your written language. Teachers from a wide variety of subjects will be available at various times during the week or you can make appointments to work with your own subject teachers in the Study Centre.
