SAFE TRAVEL TO AND FROM SCHOOL

In keeping with child safety and pedestrian and traffic safety:

• Students should travel the most direct route to and from school
• Students should always follow safe use of road crossings at all times
• Parents should discuss with their children management strategies to use if approached by a stranger

SAFETY AT SCHOOL DROP OFF & PICK UP

We kindly ask all parents and carers to adhere to road safety regulations during drop-off and pick-up times. Your cooperation is essential in ensuring the safety of our students and the broader school community both in the mornings and afternoons.

Please refrain from parking in, double parking or blocking driveways on Maroubra Road and nearby streets.

If you have any family members assisting you with drop off or pick up can you please share this message with them.

Our priority is to keep our students safe at all times. We thank you for your support with this.

SAVE THE DATE: GRANDPARENTS DAY

St Aidan's annual celebration for our Grandparents will be held on Tuesday 4 November. Further details will be provided closer to the date. 

KEEPING OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY HEALTHY

The health and wellbeing of our students and staff remain our top priority. With this in mind, we kindly urge you to please keep your child at home if they are feeling unwell.

If your child is experiencing symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, it is essential that they stay home until they recover. 

We understand that it can be challenging to rearrange schedules and childcare arrangements when your child is sick, but prioritising their health and the wellbeing of our school community is paramount.  

By working together we can create a safer and healthier school environment for everyone.

Thank you for your support and understanding.
