VISITORS MUST WEAR A MASK

All visitors, parents and carers must wear a face mask at all times when visiting the school.  The exception to this is when parents are dropping off or picking up students, they do not enter the school buildings and therefore are not required to wear masks at this time.

EARLY PICK UP

Students should only be picked up prior to 2:45 (preps and siblings) or 3pm (grades1-6) in exceptional circumstances.

We ask that, wherever possible, you advise the teacher prior that this will occur so they can send the student up to the office at the appropriate time.  

It is not always possible to do announcements over the PA as these announcements disrupt student learning across the whole school.

We suggest that students are not picked up during recess and lunchtimes as it can be difficult to find students in the yard at this time and may cause delays.

STAFF CARPARK

A reminder that the school driveway and staff carpark are not for parents/carers.

It is extremely unsafe to illegally park in these areas as it blocks access for emergency vehicles and/or staff needing to urgently leave the carpark.

PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN THIS AREA

PARKING

A reminder to all our families that Hume City Council has parking restrictions in the streets surrounding our school. Please adhere to the parking signage and obey the council regulations at all times. Hume City Council does regular patrols at school pick up and drop off times and you will be fined if you are parked illegally.

We realise there are many parents/ carers trying to pick up many students at the same time and we ask that you be patient and considerate of others and perhaps think about parking a bit further away and walking if you are unable to find a legal parking space which is safe for all concerned. Our students safety is our priority at all times. We also ask that you respect out school neighbours by not parking across their driveways as this is illegal and dangerous, especially if there is an urgent need for that home owner to gain access to their property or leave their property. 

The sporting facility at the rear of our school is closer to being completed now that restrictions have eased and there will be parking availability in the grounds when that is open.
