**********RERUN – PLEASE READ – IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION********** 

Road Safety around Miners Rest Primary School and Kindergarten

As a representative group of the MRPS K-6, we have been asked to express many families’ concerns of the driving and road safety awareness of parents/carers/guardians and students alike. 

Did you know:

  • that the end of the cul-de-sac at the kinder is a NO STANDING zone, which means you cannot drop your children off here;
  • the one-way Dundas Street was made for the safety of all road users – please do not do an u-turn and drive the wrong way to park in front of the school;
  • there is a NO STANDING zone along the front of the school – please do not park and drop your children off, or call them to cross the road to jump in the car.

We as parents/carers/guardians, need to be modelling correct driver and pedestrian behaviours for the safety of all road users.  We feel there will be an accident in the very near future unless behaviours change immediately.
