MEET THE TEAM

MEET THE LIBRARY TEAM

Our library is open five days a week and is staffed by a librarian, Miss Milne, and a library assistant, Mrs Abbott. We also have a reading leadership group and student reading ambassadors. A passion for reading is shared throughout Prestwick Academy and members of staff from across the school have joined the team as staff reading ambassadors.
