Road Safety Reminders
School drop off
A reminder that the school opens for supervision from 8.20am. Parents must supervise their children until the front gate opens.
When using the kiss and drop zone please stop your car at the sign beside the large tree (see photo) and beware of the crossing ahead along with cars pulling out around you.
Road Safety Tip #3
Most journeys to and from school are in peak hours
Roads are full of people and vehicles. The roads around schools are busy places and can make the journey to school hazardous. Always closely and actively supervise your child. Hold hands together when walking on the footpath and crossing the road. You should do this until they are at least ten years old.
