Kiss and Drop Reminder

A reminder to all parents and carers who use the Kiss and Drop zone in Quorn Street to adhere to the following points so that all our students are kept safe in the area. 

  • Please enter via the Earl St side of Quorn St (University end) and move to the furthest available spot to allow other cars to come in behind you. This means turning left only into the area and not making a right hand turn into the zone or accessing the zone from David Avenue.
  • Before school, students need to be fully dressed so that they exit the car promptly from the left hand passenger side.
  • Upon exiting the zone drivers are to only make a turn left on to Quorn Street, proceeding to Nelson Road.
  • Vehicles are not to be left unattended in the area. The Kiss and Drop Zone is not a parking bay. If a student is not waiting in the zone when their parent/carer arrives, parents/carers are asked to do a lap of the block.
  • If you are collecting your child in Quorn Street and are not using the Kiss and Drop zone, please ensure that you do not park on or over the Children’s Crossing.
  • All students must cross at the Children’s Crossing and we ask all adults to model this behaviour as well.
  • Phones and other devices can be a distraction for pedestrians, affecting their ability to cross a road safely. We ask that students, parents and carers do not use their devices whilst crossing the road or in the Kiss and Drop zone.
  • Drivers are reminded that Quorn Street is a 40 km/h zone with electronic signs either end of the street indicating the hours that this speed limit is enforced.
