ROAD SAFETYROAD SAFETYROAD SAFETYROAD SAFETY
I HAVE BEEN TALKING TO Kerry at the RTA about the incident that occurred last Friday
afternoon and have taken into account her recommendations.
• The double gates will be shut at 2.30pm to 3.15pm
• Children waiting to be picked up in the afternoon will be asked to wait inside the
walkway gate. No child will be able to wait outside the gate. Parents need to park
and collect their children
The RTA recommend children under 8 years have an adult hold their hand near the road
or at the crossing. Children under 10 years should have an adult accompany them near
the road. Please obey the road signs and follow the road rules to ensure the safety of
our students.
