Road Safety- Children Crossing the Road

Please remind your children that they are not to cross the road without an adult, both in the morning and the afternoon. We ask that adults come on site so they are there to walk their child across the road, particularly if the duty teacher is held up for some reason. 

If you park on Sainsbury Road, please walk your children along the path and cross your child at the crossing area, rather than along other points on Sainsbury Road. We have found traffic doesn't always slow down quickly as they enter the 60 km zone. 

It's also worth making sure your child doesn't assume a car will stop for them when they are waiting on the side of the road to cross. Drivers, please feel free to not stop to help us reinforce this message that you don't cross until the road is clear and to not assume that if a car has slowed, that is stopping ready for someone to cross. Reminders about walking across the road, not running, is helpful too.

Thanks for your support.
