Morning Drop off ......... 'Kiss and Drop'

Just a reminder that there are 4 designated car areas (P2 minute zones) for dropping off your child/ren in the morning between 8-9am . There are two on Bradford Avenue and two down Langton Way. 

 

These areas are NOT FOR PARKING during these times. They are a ‘Kiss & Drop’ zones. These areas work effectively if parents do exactly that – pull up, kiss their child/ren, children get out of the car, parent drives off and vacates the space so that the next car can do the same. Parents must NOT park and leave their car in these zones in the morning before 9am. Parking officers from Hume City Council frequently drive around our school. However, more importantly our school values of Respect and Responsibility. Respect for other families within the school community and allowing them access to also drop off their children in the ‘Kiss and Drop’ zones and Responsibility to follow parking instructions as signed.
