Health Centre Notice
Spread kindness, not cold and flu! We appreciate everyone’s ongoing efforts in continuing to avoid the spread of illness within the Saints community as we aim to protect our immunocompromised students, staff, and families. In the winter months, colds, flus and Covid-19 are circulating heavily. A reminder that it is strongly recommended your child stays home if they have any cold or flu-like symptoms and should stay home until all symptoms subside irrespective of the illness
Car Park Protocols
An important reminder to families about our car park protocols, particularly during drop off and pick up.
If the car park is full and you are unable to enter, circle the block until it is clear to enter, find a park elsewhere or, where age-appropriate, meet your daughter in a surrounding street.
Please note that, unless special circumstances apply, parents of girls in Years 2 to 12 should not enter the car park to collect their daughters prior to 3.30pm. Parents of girls in Reception and Year 1 have exclusive use of the pick-up zone prior to this time for safety and traffic reasons.
- Reception pick-up at 3pm
- Year 1 pick-up at 3.15pm
- All other Years from 3.30pm
We ask families to remain in their vehicles at the Kiss and Drop to allow for the safety for all our community members.
Please refrain from turning right into or out of the car park at peak times, and please do not queue in the car park’s lanes as this often prevents drivers who are legally parked from exiting.
We have previously received complaints about cars being parked too close to, or in front of driveways, or across from other vehicles in surrounding streets, making it extremely difficult for residents and other road users to navigate. We ask all community members to show consideration for others.
Thank you for your cooperation.
