Drop Off and Pick Up

It is great to see our drop off / pick up zones starting to work well.  There have been far less issues now but there are still a few things that would really help the flow of traffic.

Drivers please:

• Do not park in the Heal or Hawthorne Street areas before or after school.
• Remain in your vehicle
• Have your LOOKOUT name tag on display for staff
• Be ready to move on if your child is not there and staff ask you to drive on.
• For further reading on the LOOKOUT program see our website- search LOOKOUT

and refer to the SafeSchoolTravel website link below.
