Triandra Court concerns

A resident of Botanic Ridge in Triandra Court is concerned about the speed of traffic in the court, especially during busy pick up and drop off times.  Those families who use this area, can you be extra mindful.

The carpark is for CSPS employees ONLY.

Families are to park in a parking bay on Browns and Pearcedale Roads.

Adults are to abide by school, traffic laws and and local road rule expectations.

Adults who park illegally eg. along roads where there are no official parking bays, on the nature strip park or at the Cranbourne South Store, do so at their own peril. 

Parents who require special parking consideration are to discuss their needs directly with the Principal class. 

Any misbehaviour from adults (including road use as reported by the crossing supervisor) will be reported to the principal class to address accordingly, including notification to Vicroads, City of Casey and the Police.

Adults delivering/picking up children are not permitted to walk through the staff carpark.  Please use the footpaths on either side of the old Multi Purpose Room to enter the school grounds.

The Kiss and Go Zone is accessible at 8.30am and 3.30pm. 

Parking in the KISS and GO zone is prohibited  Adults found in this area will be asked to move their car.

Driving through the staff carpark is prohibited.

"When am I going to improve the situation?"

I have jurisdiction up to the footpath around the school.  I do NOT have justification from the footpath onto the roads and movement along the roads and roundabout.  That is up to the public to behave and abide by parking and traffic laws.

How can you help?

Ensure ample time to drop off/pick up students to allow for safe use.

In the afternoons, arrive between 3.40 and 3.45pm as traffic flow has dramatically improved.

Park a slight distance away from school, park and walk - a terrific way to get some fresh air.

If age appropriate, encourage students to walk, ride, scooter to school to develop independence.

Seat belts & child restraints

Children aged 4 years to under 7 years must travel in either a forward facing child restraint with an inbuilt harness, or a booster seat.

Children grow at different rates and there can be big differences in their heights and weights. Therefore you can choose the type of restraint that is best for your child's size.

Where can children sit in vehicles?

Children aged 4 years old to under 7 years old can only sit in the front seat if all of the back seats are taken by other passengers under 7 years old. The child must travel in a booster seat without a top tether strap, because there will be no anchorage points for the front seat.

Children aged 7 years and over can travel in the front seat. However, research shows that children under 12 years are much safer travelling in the back seat.

You are not allowed to park in parking bays that have a disabled parking sign or road marking, unless you have a valid disabled parking permit.

Disability Parking Permit

Parking on a nature strip, footpath or shared path 

VicRoads

Paths, nature strips and dividing strips are not constructed for the parking of vehicles. Parking on them can damage the nature strip surface, trees and root systems, kerb and channel, paths, house drain connections and other underground services. 

A driver must not park on a bicycle path, footpath, shared path, dividing strip, or a nature strip adjacent to a length of road in a built up area, unless the driver parks at a place allowed by a parking sign. 

A nature strip is defined as the area between a road and adjacent land and includes amongst other things areas of grass, cement or gravel, dirt and driveways. It does not include the kerb, shoulder of a road or a bicycle path, footpath or shared path.
