Road Safety
Road Safety - Modelling how we want our community to practise road safety
40 km/h zones are in place on all roads around schools. Murphy St and Hodgson Cres are especially busy with traffic and pedestrians between 8.30-9.00am and 3.00-3.30pm. If our community respects these speed limits, then hopefully we can slow down all the traffic on these roads. Furthermore:
- We have a left turn only from drive-through onto Hodgson Cres to ease congestion on the street and into our car park.
- Park facing uphill on Murphy St, thus keeping cars on one side of the road.
We have two school crossings on Hodgson St. In the interest of safety and being great role models for young people, we ask parents and students to make use of these, rather than walk across the road at other places along Hodgson St.
Murphy St park-and-pickup and our school drive-through are very busy at 3.15pm. Teachers are on duty in these areas until 3.30pm. To alleviate congestion and make it safer for everyone please consider arriving a few minutes later at 3.15pm. Just let your child know if you plan to do this!
Thanks for your cooperation and respect for the safety of all.
Road Safety Considerations.
- Murphy St Pick Up - Please respect our neighbours by avoiding parking in their driveways, and walking through and littering their gardens. Also it is illegal to park within 10m of an intersection, so please be careful along McNeil Pl.
