Important Notices

Drop Off and Pick Up Reminder

✅ To ensure the safety of all students and ease congestion during busy times, we ask that families use the designated drop-off and pick-up bay on Lilleys Road.

❌ The Burke Street entrance is our main bus access point and becomes heavily congested. Please avoid using this area during peak times.

• The Visitor and Staff parking near Administration is for pre-arranged appointments only and not for drop-off or pick-up.
• The Hall car park is for staff parking only and is not a drop-off area.

Thank you for helping us keep our school safe and running smoothly.
