Road and Traffic

Please drive and park safely and legally in and around the school zone at all times. Information about Queensland road rules is available from the Department of Transport and Main Roads (e.g. Queensland road rules website page).

Drop and Go is a Loading Zone with a 2 minute maximum and penalties may apply. That road and parking area is not school property and is policed.

We recommend that parents and caregivers arrive at Drop and Go from 3pm to allow students time to walk to the area to be collected. Drop and Go is supervised until 3:30pm, so arriving between 3:15pm and 3:25pm is an excellent way to avoid congestion.

The flyer below provides information about safe parking around schools from the City of Gold Coast. ParkSafe vehicles monitor compliance of parking measures, including around schools at peak times and other high-pedestrian activity zones, including on weekends and public holidays.

We ask that all members of the school community are considerate of our neighbours when parking. This includes not parking across driveways and only parking at Man on Bike and Coplicks Tallebudgera Golf Course when they are customers.

We operate Drop and Go each day and participate in the Active School Travel program (aiming to reduce traffic congestion at peak times and promote healthy active habits).
