St. Robert’s School believes that if a boy reads only his textbooks he will be only half educated. A boy who does not learn to read during his school years will not have the habit of reading and will not continue to develop his mind after he has left school. To help all students develop a taste for good reading, a well equipped and attractive reading room is provided. The students are encouraged to use it before class and during lunch break.
