PARKING

Weedons School Office —

Carpark We are very unique in that the vast majority of our pupils are brought to school by car. Our school is in a 80km zone with a compulsory 40km limit directly in front of the school during nominated times within school hours. We would appreciate it if you could abide by the following rules.

The car park adjacent to the school is available for parents dropping off and picking up their children. Please take extreme care during the busy periods as children can be unpredictable.

Please do not park on the other side of the road. This reduces visibility and necessitates crossing a busy road with your child.

The zone in front of the school is referred to as our ‘drop off’ and pick-up zone. Children are not to leave the school grounds unless:

A) Accompanied by an adult – children will wait in the lunch area for you to come and collect them.

B) Walking or cycling home. Children who are walking home will be escorted out of the school by a teacher.

C) On our school bus (special bus zone only)

If the after school routine for your child is changing (either permanently or just for one day) please let the office know, especially if they are on the bus or walking somewhere.

We have successfully got the speed limit reduced outside the school but it is still up to us as a community to ensure that we are taking all practicable steps to ensure the safety of our children. Children walking, biking or using the school bus to get home are provided with a fluorescent vest. Please collect these from the Office.
