A number of parents and others collecting students from the College in the afternoon are failing to adhere to standard traffic rules and guidelines previously communicated to families. 

We ask all drivers to remember, and abide by, the following:

• Buses have priority at all times.
• Before and after school, parents should expect considerable delays in collecting students from the College grounds.
• Students being collected will be directed to wait for their parents in the parent pick up point closest to the Nicholls Playing Fields.
• Student are not permitted to walk out onto the road and enter cars.
• Cars are not to stop in the bus collection lane to collect students.
• Painted traffic islands are not carparks or places to stop and wait for students.

These rules are in place to maintain our priority of promoting the safety of all students, staff, and the wider community.

Parents are also reminded that they are expected to follow all directions from JPC staff supervising before and after school in these areas.

As has been communicated, it is preferable that students are encouraged to develop autonomy by safely making their way to and from school independently - on foot, riding their bike or catching a bus.

Students can access Bus timetables and Maps at the Student Office and they are available to parents and students via the Transport Canberra website.

We have a zero tolerance for abuse of staff. Please be respectful to all. 

Thank you for your support and cooperation with this matter.
