Bayside School Holiday Program

Safer Cycling for Students

To provide a safer cycling experience for riders, particularly school children making their way to and from school, Council is proposing to implement no stopping restrictions (no parking) at specific times on Balcombe Road between Reserve and Charman Roads (excluding the angle parking at Seaview shops).

 

The new restrictions will provide a clear bike path along Balcombe Road so that children do not need to weave in and out of traffic to avoid parked cars. The times proposed are targeted around busy school commuting hours.

Levelling the playing field for all with Bayside’s new Fair Access Policy & Action Plan

I’m Aimee White, Recreation Planner at Bayside City Council, and I’m excited to be leading the Community Engagement for our Fair Access Policy and Action Plan over the next few weeks. We would help support this incredible initiative to advocate for gender equity and change in sport and active recreation. This will be relevant for all staff and students and the broader school community.
