Safety in the carpark

Safety in the carpark 

 

We understand that parents cannot always find a carpark during peak pick up and drop off times. However, this does not excuse the high number of parents allowing children to open car doors whilst the car is running and on the road in the carpark to either get out of the car (beginning of the day) or get into the car (end of the day). 

It is important that parents park legally to provide a safer environment for children. Double parking restricts the view of drivers, forces children onto the road and obstructs the flow of traffic.

 

We encourage parents to drive safety in our school carpark and ensure your car is parked (in a carpark) when you child is getting in or out the car. 

 

Please note:

The speed of a moving vehicle is limited to 5km in the carpark and to drive with care.

 

The local council does monitor school carparks and will issues fines for anyone seen to be breach of the road safety regulations.
