Student Driver Permits

Students who are driving cars to school are required to apply for a parking permit from the College office, these permits must be updated at the beginning of each calendar year. On change of license conditions, the new drivers’ license must be presented to the College office for copying and a new driving permit will be issued.

If the student wishes to transport passengers who are students at Roncalli; these must be named on the application and the parent of the passenger must authorise this. Random audits shall occur by staff supervising the carpark area. These shall be to check for parking compliance, authorised passengers, and vehicle WOF.

You may not leave the grounds during school hours without permission from your House Group Teacher or Dean and you also require a note from your parents.

The Vistab in the Office must be completed before leaving the property and on your return.

To attend a medical or educational appointment during class time, you must present an appointment card or written permission from your Parent/Guardian.

Parking and Drop off points for students

We would like to remind you that the College has identified the Wellington Street entrance and the Quad area as a safety issue of concern. This is a very high traffic area with students going about their daily business, especially at the beginning and end of the College day. We therefore ask that parents transporting students at this time pick up and drop off their students at either the Cain Street or Craigie Ave entrances that allow for more clear separation of foot and car traffic.

We also welcome members of our community into the College during the day but ask that they park in the available car parks along the immediate right of the Wellington Street entrance adjacent to the Office, as opposed to in the middle of the Quad. Should an emergency occur response vehicles expect to be able to pull in and use the Quad for easy access to the College. Thank you for your cooperation with this important issue.
