If your child rides a bike or scooter to school, it is your responsibility to ensure that these are in a roadworthy condition, and children wear a helmet. They should have a chain to lock their bikes to the bike racks provided and they are not permitted to access them during school hours.
Students who drive their own vehicle to school are not permitted to park in designated staff parking areas. Specific bays inside the school grounds have been allocated to students but they must first apply for a Student Parking Permit prior to bringing their vehicle onto school grounds. Street parking bays are also available along Redcliffe Avenue.
