Important Parking Information at Oxford Falls

With the commencement of our winter sporting season I would like to give an important reminder to all parents and caregivers of being respectful of our neighbours at our Oxford Falls campus.

Please ensure that you follow road and parking rules in and around Dreadnought and Spicer Roads, including parking in appropriate areas and also following advised speed limits.

Council Rangers will be patrolling the area on Saturdays.

 

Please note that parking in the C3 Church grounds is not permissible.  There are multiple signs indicating that it is a one-way road, with 'wrong way' signs up in place.  As it has been noted that parents have been breaching this one-way direction on these grounds, the C3 Church are clearly concerned for the safety of their community.

Please respect this expectation and only park in designated areas and follow all directions when parking, for the safety of all our Oxford Falls community.

Kiss and Ride afternoon pick up in Kirk Street

St Pius X College and Our Lady of Dolours Primary School share the Kiss and Ride section at the top of Kirk Street each afternoon.

To ensure the safety of all students, please arrive at 3:05 pm to collect St Pius X Junior School students from Kirk Street.

You are not allowed to park, or remain stationary, in the Kiss and Ride section of Kirk Street so please ensure you arrive after 3:05 pm otherwise you will be required to circle out and around.

Council rangers patrol this area regularly and heavy fines are issued for non-compliance.

Thank you for your support in keeping our students safe.

COVID-19 Update

The College has a supply of Rapid Antigen Home Tests which are available for collection from Student Reception if any family requires them.

If your son is feeling unwell with COVID-like symptoms, please have him complete a RAHT test.  If he tests positive, NSW Health recommends that he stay at home until acute symptoms have gone.  

If your son has COVID-19, please advise Student Management via the email

studentmanagement@stpiusx.nsw.edu.au to advise.

Good hygiene practices continue to be recommended: washing your hands with soap and water frequently or use an alcohol-based hand sanitiser, covering your coughs and sneezes and wearing a mask when appropriate.
