Car Parking and Road Safety
Road safety and safe parking around our school is important especially at busy drop off and pickup times. Parents and carers are reminded to observe ACT road rules, speed limits and parking directions in the streets around our school.
Please follow ACT Road rules at all times. These can be found at Transport Canberra website Travel safely to School
Remember!
It’s okay to park a little further away and walk the rest of the way.
Consider!
Having a pre-determined meeting spot agreed on with your children so they know where to wait.
It is recommended that you do not park:
- at signposted ‘no stopping’ or ‘no parking’ zones
- in bus zones
- on zebra crossings
- in disabled bays
- on nature strips and across footpaths

Complaints, Feedback and Enquiries
Hearing about your experiences is important to us. Complaints, feedback and enquiries help us improve our school, our procedures and our services.
If you have feedback or a concern about your child’s education, please begin by making a time to have a conversation with your child’s class teacher. You are also welcomed to contact your child's year level executive teacher, Deputy Principal or Principal if you feel your concern has not been sufficiently addressed.
ACT Education has a process in place to ensure all complaints, feedback and enquiries receive a reply in a timely manner, that we will listen to your needs, and treat you with respect. This policy can be accessed at https://www.education.act.gov.au/support-for-our-students/complaints-feedback-and-enquiries.
