End of Day Tennis Court Access Reminder

A friendly reminder that the top gates will open at 3:00 pm each day to provide access to the tennis courts for parking. To help maintain safe and smooth traffic flow in the carpark, we kindly ask that you do not queue in front of the gates before this time. If you arrive early, please park in a designated car space rather than stopping in the thoroughfare. Thank you for your cooperation and support.

Parking Reminder

Just a reminder for school families to not park in the designated church parks at the front of the church please. These need to be left free for church staff and visitors and for SPLASH staff. Thank you for your understanding.
