Getting To and From School Safely
As a parent or carer, it’s your responsibility to get your child to and from school safely. Student safety is our priority.
Keep our school community safe by:
- Driving and parking safely even if it means parking further away and walking up to the school
- Being a good role model
- Never calling your child from across the road
- Using the crossings on the road.
For Parents and Carers of Younger Children
Discuss with your child how to be safe when:
- Walking
- In the car
- Waiting for, travelling on, and getting off the bus
- Riding bikes, scooters and skateboards
Also, talk about and practice:
- Safe travel routes
- Plans for when unexpected things happen
- What to do in wet weather.

- The School Student Transport Scheme provides eligible students with free or subsidised travel on public transport between home and school.
