Charlotte Street
To help us keep our students safe, we are appealing to parents to not drop-off or pick-up your children on Charlotte Street. It is a very busy street during school zone times with increased bus activity and limited parking zones.
All students should be dropped off and picked up at either Pick Up Point A (off Moss Vale Road) or Pick Up Point B (off Eridge Park Road).
Please also be aware that police randomly patrol School Zones to ensure compliance with road safety rules.
Thank you for your continued cooperation.
