Safe Around Schools

A timely reminder to the school community about the importance of safe and legal parking around schools during school drop off and pick up times.

Parents must not:

• Drop off or pick up in No Stopping areas.
• Park on a nature strip.
• Drop off or pick up while double-parked or waiting in traffic.
• Leave their cars parked/unattended in a No Parking zone.
• Wait in No Parking zones for longer than 2 minutes.

We especially want to remind parents that No Parking zones outside schools are for quick drop off and pick up. Parents who need to leave their cars need to find legal parking somewhere else.

A tip for parents using the No Parking zones during the afternoon pick-up times. 

Arrive a couple of minutes after the school bell to ensure your child is at the zone ready to be picked up.  Do not sit and wait in the No Parking zone for longer than the legal 2-minute period.

Illegal parking around schools puts children and other pedestrians at risk of serious injury. Parking Compliance Officers enforce all parking restrictions around schools and cars parked illegally may receive parking infringements.
