Driving and parking

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

When driving and parking near our school, please:

ensure you park safely in school zones
follow speed signs
do not make U-turns or 3-point turns outside the school.

Driving and parking safely - even if it means parking further away and walking the rest of the way to school.

Kiss and Drop

On the school side of Stradbroke Avenue is a zone for dropping off and picking up students. The zone is titled “Kiss and Drop”. Parents are to drop their child off and move on without delay. This zone operates between:

8:30am and 9:30am

2:30pm and 3:30pm

Children are supervised by a member of the school staff in the afternoon.

If students are to be collected by car, they are to wait in the designated “Kiss and Drop” area on Stradbroke Avenue. Students are to wait until the car is stationary in the designated zone and enter via the passenger side. Parents are not to get out of their cars in the ‘Kiss and Drop’ Zone. Cars cannot park in the “Kiss and Drop Zone”. This area is supervised by a teacher to ensure the traffic flows. If your child is not ready upon your arrival in the ‘Kiss and Drop Zone’, please drive through, and go around the block. This ensures that the ‘Kiss and Drop Zone’ operates as efficiently as possible. Similarly, cars are not to line up to get into the Kiss and Drop Zone if full - you are not allowed to block the local traffic.
