Road Safety When Picking Up Your Child

When picking up your child from school please ensure that you meet them at the front gate. When crossing the road never walk behind a bus, please use the designated crossing area so that drivers can see you as you cross the road with your child/ren. 

The beginning and end of the school day are busy times for pedestrians and vehicles outside the school. That’s why you need to take extra care in 40km/h school zones. 

• Park safely and legally, even if it means walking further to the school gate. Parking signs are planned with children’s safety in mind. 

• Slow down to 40km/h in the school zone and stay aware of crossings. 

• Always park and turn legally around the school. 

• Never double park as it puts children at risk. 

• Manoeuvres such as U-turns and three-point turns are dangerous.              

• Never park in a bus zone or in the school bus bay. 

• Make sure your children use the Safety Door (rear footpath side door) to get in and out of the car. 

• Model safe and considerate behaviour for your child – they will learn from you. Remember to always give way to pedestrians particularly when entering and leaving driveways. 

• Don’t park across the school driveway or the entrance to the school car park. It’s always a good idea to use the drop off and pick up area suggested by your school. This will help keep all children as safe as possible during the busiest times of the school day.
