GATES LOCKED DURING SCHOOL HOURS

Dear Parents

Our fencing project is now completed, although improved signage for the Reception Gate is still to come.

It is highly recommended that all gates (except reception) are locked during school hours. 

This makes the school secure.  (If we needed to evacuate, gates would be unlocked).

If parents or students need to come into the school during the day, they are asked to use the gate (on the path, near the hall) at reception.

Students who arrive late will be unable to open the reception gate, as it has a kiddy lock that is too high for them. Parents will need to come with their child to open the gate (so please don’t just drop your child off on the path and drive away!)

Thanks for your understanding of this change in access to the school grounds. The new routines will take a little bit of effort to adjust to, but our students will be safer. 

The grounds will continue to be available to the community out of school hours.

Regards

Dorothy Bigwood
