🌟 WE ARE HIRING! 🌟

We have had a few concerns of students not crossing at the school crossing before and after school. Pedestrian crossings are areas designated for foot traffic, that are intended to increase pedestrian safety and facilitate the flow of vehicular traffic. They are absolutely vital in maintaining order in the streets and protecting both drivers and pedestrians on the road. Your students safety is our main concern and we ask that you please enforce this rule to cross at the school crossing with your child.

Thank you for your help in this matter
