Always meet your child at the bus stop – never on the opposite side of the road.
-
Hold your child’s hand at the bus stop.
-
Stand a few steps back from the edge of the road when waiting at the bus stop.

Wait until the bus has gone, then choose a safe place to cross the road.

Teach your child to be a safe rider by:
- riding with a licence
- always wearing a correctly fitted helmet – it’s the law
- riding on the footpath keeping to the left and giving way to pedestrians
- always supervising children under 10, adults are allowed to ride on footpaths with children under 16
- being responsible to store their bike securely, in the bike racks located in the bark area of the top oval
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.
Parent drop off and pick up
You can help keep our children safe by:
- dropping your child off and picking them up from either bottom gate or kiss and drop
- never calling out to them from across the road - it is very dangerous
- parking responsibly even if it means you have to walk further to the school gate.
Staff cark park
Remember:
- the staff car park is for staff use only
- do not use the car park to drop off or pick up your children
Walking safely
Always hold your child’s hand until they are 8 years old,
- on the footpath
- in the car park and
- when crossing the road
Until children are 10 years old, they should be closely supervised in the traffic environment and hold an adult’s hand when crossing the road.
Choose a safe crossing
Lead by example and choose a safe place to cross the road. Stop, Look, Listen, Think every time you cross the road. Discuss this important road safety message. The pedestrian crossing on Avoca Drive is the safest place to cross the road.
STOP! - one step back from the kerb.
LOOK! - continuously both ways.
LISTEN! - for the sounds of approaching traffic.
THINK! - whether it is safe to cross.
