Over the next few weeks, construction will begin next door at the old convent site.  This is soon to be a privately owned Day Care Centre.  Many of you would have already noticed the fencing up and the land being cleared in preparation for this.  Because of this (which may cause traffic congestion on Theodore st) , and because of our general safety concerns, I would like to again remind  families about our pick up procedures as follows: 

• Students are to be picked up from the Kindergarten courtyard, the morning assembly area or at the drive through area at the top of the car park.  Students need to be at any of these three areas, because of safety and supervision.  We have noticed that there are some children in danger because they are either crossing the front of school at the ring road, walking across the entrance to drive through, rather than using the crossing, or walking on the side of drive through, rather than the safety of the crossing.
• Parents who park to collect students should not be waiting for the students at their car, especially at the top of Theodore st.  A large volume of students are playing around pick up areas and then moving to car park areas, before families have arrived. 

Please be assured these reminders are all about student safety- our care and concern for our students are our utmost priority.  I appreciate and value your support with this.
