NO PARKING AT BUS ZONE

Foot Street, front of school on 7-10 Campus

REMINDERS | No student pick-up or drop-off is permitted in the on-campus car parks. Please make arrangements with your child to organise a pick-up/drop-off location off-campus. Parking is available in the streets surrounding each campus.

CROSSING THE ROAD | REMINDER TO BUS TRAVELLERS

All students who travel to and from school via the public buses are reminded to only use the black and white ‘zebra crossings’ on Towerhill Road and Foot Street to get to and from bus stops, before and after school.

Traffic is extremely congested on the streets before and after school. It is not safe for students to cross the roads anywhere but the zebra crossings at any time, but especially before and after school. Parents/carers are asked to discuss with their children, the importance of this matter.

STUDENT SUPERVISION | BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL

Please be aware that teachers are on duty in the grounds on the:

7-10 Campus: from 8.30am until 3.40pm.

Senior Campus: from 8.00am until 3.40pm.

It is advisable for students to arrive at school after supervision begins unless they have:

scheduled class time
a planned activity (eg semper squad)

Please note that some buses leave after the conclusion of yard duty. Students are expected to behave in a responsible manner when in school uniform, before and after school.

Pedestrian and Traffic Surveys

The Department of Transport and Planning is partnering with councils to survey traffic and pedestrian movements at various locations across Victoria to identify any road safety issues.

Survey cameras will be temporarily mounted on public roads for a 3-day period (Tues, Wed & Thurs), which will be activated to cover the morning and afternoon school times. Similarly to Google Maps there will be no facial or number plate recognition and will not be placed on any school grounds. This camera technology detects movement without capturing the identity of pedestrians and vehicles. It replaces the pneumatic rubber tubes and onsite observations previously used for such surveys.

Participating councils will also have their engineers go on location to undertake site surveys.
