ROAD SAFETY...

All children should be constantly reminded of safety in coming to and going from school, whether cycling or walking. In general it is recommended that children under Year 5 do not cycle to school, especially if it involves cycling on Clarkin Road. If collecting your child after school, please park in Clarkin Rd. or Strowan Ave. Please be considerate of the people living in these streets. Children going out to Clarkin Rd or crossing over the road are taken by the duty teacher. If waiting on Clarkin Road, please wait on the school side of the road as young children may run across the road without looking. When it is necessary for children to cross Clarkin Road, they must do so by the patrolled crossing, whether accompanied by an adult or not.  It is important that adults also obey Road Patrol instructions.  The crossing is patrolled in the mornings from 8:30 to 8:50 am and in the afternoons from 2.45 – 3.00pm.
