Road Safety!

This is an important reminder to parents, carers and students to please be mindful and alert regarding road safety around our school.

We have had a few reported incidents of cars not slowing down or stopping at the school crossings as well as students "jaywalking". 

Dendy street and Marriage road are especially busy during morning drop off and afternoon pick up, please obey the road rules, ensure you're approaching the school crossings with the upmost caution and take care when exiting a car park as we do have students who ride in the designated bike lanes. 

Students, please use the school crossings or traffic lights when needing to cross the road.

Please help us keep everyone safe by obeying the road rules.

This form must be filled in, signed and returned with any medication that Parents wish First Aid to provide to their student (child), including Panadol (Paracetamol).

The College is no longer authorised to provides Paracetamol and this must be provided by parents for their student individually along with the Medical Authority Form.
