Once again we saw several near accidents around the school this morning. The NO STANDING area directly across from the staff carpark on Edward Beck Drive was a particular problem with many cars holding up traffic in their attempt to park here. This caused traffic congestion with not enough room for cars to safely pass each other on this stretch of street. We know that it is difficult to find a park close by but, again, ask that you choose safety over convenience. We also saw several families cross Edward Beck drive without using the crossing. We encourage our students to think about safety on our roads and ask that all parents to support this.

Is it possible to provide a handout from teachers directly to parents at school interviews with simple bullet points & reminders on the traffic safety in the school zone? Perhaps including a map showing no parking times too. If grandparents or other relatives are involved in collecting children, they may need 2 copies sent home. Apologies if this has already been suggested or overlaps with a system already in place.
