Safety at our school gate.

Drop-off and Pick-up Bay Guidelines

  • For drop-offs: Pull up, have your tamariki hop straight out of the car, and drive off.
  • For pick-ups: Tamariki should be ready and waiting behind the fence at the pick-up point and hop straight into the car.

Important Safety Reminders

  • If you arrive before 3pm, please do not enter the drop-off bay. Park elsewhere to wait.
  • Do not park or stop in a way that blocks the school crossing.
  • Do not park on yellow lines outside the school. These areas must remain clear for full visibility so tamariki can cross safely.
  • Stick to the 30km/h speed limit outside the school at all times.
  • Be patient, watch out for children, and be prepared to stop.

Alternative Pick-Up Points

Consider using other convenient spots to pick up tamariki, such as:

  • Northpoint Church car park
  • The back entry to the school further along Dillon Drive

With summer just around the corner, this is also a great opportunity for tamariki to enjoy walking, biking, or scootering home. A short walk to meet you at these alternative pick-up points can be a fun and healthy option too!
