Wattletree Road Gate
To ensure the safety of all students in our OSHC program we secure the gate on Wattletree Road by 3:45pm each day. The program also uses the front playground for students from 3:45 pm. We kindly ask that you please exit the junior playground by 3:45pm to allow the OSHC program to use the area from this time. If you are exiting the school with your children after 3:45pm, there are exits available through the gate near the carpark or via the hall and Performing Arts room. Thank you in advance for your support with this.
