Parking
Parking is available along King Arthur Drive, Galahad Crescent and Avalon Avenue. Monash City Council Parking Inspectors regularly monitor the parking situation in Galahad Crescent. As the safety of all our students is our prime concern, we are pleased that the Council has taken this initiative to ensure that the parking restrictions are observed. When vehicles are stopped or parked too close to the crossing, the visibility of drivers approaching the school crossing is impaired and this places our students at risk. We ask parent’s co-operation in keeping this area clear at all times.
Please remember that to maximise the safety of all our students (and community) it is important to observe and follow all guidelines in place at all times:
- There is a 2-minute drop-off zone in place, which means 2 minutes maximum. Vehicles are not to be left unattended.
- There is a Permit Only Zone in front of the staff carpark. Please do not park here unless you have a permit.
- Abide by all road rules
- Use the crossings provided (manned or not) to cross the road
- Ensure children exit the car on the footpath side
- Encourage your children to stand on the footpath not on the road when leaving the car
- Be patient and respectful of other motorists
Scholastics Bookclub
Scholastic aims to give every child access to quality books and learning materials, and create literacy-rich homes, schools and communities throughout Australia.
To help achieve this goal, Scholastic Rewards were created as a form of currency as a way to give back to schools.
Every time you participate in a Scholastic offering, your School is being rewarded! For example, for every Book Club order that you place, Scholastic gives back 20% of your total order spend to your school as Scholastic Rewards.
Scholastic gives away millions of dollars in Scholastic Rewards each year, helping to stretch countless school and classroom budgets further. In doing so, educators have access to an extensive range of resources and cross-curriculum products to help their students reach their highest potential.

You can now Decline events on Compass
If for some reason your child is unable to attend an event there is now a Decline button on Compass. Please use this function if required for future events.
How to Reset Compass Password
If you require assistance with logging into Compass, you may have tried your password more than 3 times and Compass will lock you out of the system as a security measure. Please wait approximately 30 minutes and try again.
If you are still not able to remember the correct password and are needing your password reset, you can do this via the Compass login screen.
By clicking this option you will be stepped through a series of questions including a request to enter your current email or mobile phone number. Compass will use the information to forward the reset details so you must be able to access your email / mobile phone.Please note, Compass will use the existing primary email or mobile on file for that user account for verification before completing a password reset for the user. If the mobile or email that they enter does not match what is on file they will not be able to proceed.For instances where it is Parent B of an account attempting to reset the password, the system will require Parent A's email/mobile as these details are considered the primary details for the household account.
If, after waiting 30 minutes and following the ‘Cant access your account’ instructions, please call or email the school office and we will attempt to assist you.
School Uniform and Drink Bottles Reminder
Please ensure that your children are dressed each and every day wearing their CRPS uniform including school Sun Smart hat and school jumper or jacket.
Reminder. No glass bottles or containers should be bought to school, thank you.
