Library

At Horizon International School, the library is far more than a space filled with books — it is a dynamic learning hub designed to inspire curiosity, encourage imagination, and support every student’s academic and personal growth. The library plays a central role in fostering a culture of reading, inquiry, research, and lifelong learning across all grade levels.
Our library provides a carefully curated collection of fiction and nonfiction resources that reflect a wide range of genres, cultures, interests, and reading abilities. Students are encouraged to explore literature for enjoyment, deepen their understanding through research, and develop critical thinking skills through independent inquiry. Whether reading classic literature, discovering contemporary fiction, or researching cross-curricular topics, students have access to diverse and meaningful learning materials that support both academic achievement and personal interests.
In addition to the physical library collection, Horizon offers access to digital reading platforms, including Raz-Kids and Foxton Readers, to further support literacy development and independent reading. These online reading platforms provide students with access to a wide range of levelled and engaging digital texts that can be accessed anytime and anywhere, supporting reading growth both in and beyond the classroom.
 

The school’s digital reading resources include features such as:

• levelled digital books for differentiated learning;
• audio-supported texts and guided reading support;
• interactive reading activities;
• comprehension quizzes and assignments;
• vocabulary development and reading progress tracking.

These tools help students strengthen literacy skills, improve fluency and comprehension, build reading confidence, and develop greater independence as learners.
At Horizon, reading is viewed as a gateway to knowledge, creativity, communication, and global understanding. Through both physical and digital library resources, students are empowered to become confident, reflective, and self-directed learners prepared for the demands of the 21st century.
