General School Information
Parking
Please remember that the time-restricted drop-off zones are for quick drop-off and pick-up only. We have received a number of complaints regarding the increase in cars being left unattended in these areas. These concerns have also been reported to City of Greater Bendigo, who will be conducting random parking inspections and issuing fines for any illegal parking.
When vehicles are left in the drop-off zone, it causes congestion and creates potential safety risks for students. Even a few extra minutes can significantly impact traffic flow during our busiest times. If you need to bring your child/ren into the school, please use the designated parking areas.
Thank you for helping us keep our students safe and traffic flowing smoothly. We appreciate your support.

Arriving Late
From time to time, the morning routine just doesn’t go to plan — which is most mornings for me! However, as class rolls are marked at the start of the day, if your child is not in class by 9:00 am, they will be marked absent.
If you’re running late, please pop into the school office so we can sign your child in and record that they’re present at school.
