Bus students will meet a staff member at the front gate and it is expected that they will continue to follow school rules and expectations during periods of travel.

Driving and parking safety

The start and end of the school day are busy times for pedestrians and drivers outside schools.

As a parent or carer, it’s your responsibility to get your child to and from school safely. Student safety is our priority.

Keep our school community safe by:

• driving and parking safely, even if it means parking further away and walking the rest of the way to school

• being a good role model
• never calling your child from across the road
• using the safest place to cross the road.

When driving and parking near our school, please:

• ensure you park safely in school zones, children to exit vehicles curb side
• follow speed signs - 40km/hour during the hours of 8:00am-9.30am and 2.30pm-4:00pm on weekdays
• do not make U-turns or 3-point turns outside the school
• do not park illegally as parking rangers regularly inspect our streets
• please use the crossing, we have a crossing supervisor most days.

Discuss with your child how to be safe when:

• walking, in the car, waiting for, travelling on, and getting off the bus
• riding bikes, scooters and skateboards.
