ROAD SAFETY

As you all know, McKinnon Road is very busy, especially around drop off and pick up time.  Too many of our students are preoccupied with looking at their mobile phones when crossing the road, and therefore do not exercise the care that is required. A number of near incidents again reminds us of the importance of looking both ways and waiting until it is safe before stepping off the kerb. To our parents, your help in reinforcing the importance of safe behavior while crossing McKinnon Road is appreciated, since we value the health of all members of our school community.
