Safe and convenient transport
Kiss and Drop
Our supervised Kiss and Drop zone on campus means there’s no need to leave your car for drop off or pick up.
Outside of the brief drop off and pick up times, the gate to this driveway is locked, when the area becomes a large play space for our students.
Opening times
| Drop Off | Years K – 12 | 8:00am to 8:25am |
| Pick Up | Years K – 2 | 3:00pm |
| Years 3 – 4 | 3:10pm | |
| Years 5 – 6 | 3:20pm | |
| Years 7 – 12 | 3:25pm – 3:45pm |
To ensure a continuous flow of traffic, kindly avoid arriving before your eldest child’s Year Group pick-up time
School carpark
Our school carpark is primarily used for student drop-off and pick-up via our private school buses, as well as parking for our dedicated staff members.
We also offer a small number of guest parking spaces for visitors to the school. In addition, designated parking bays are available for the families of our youngest learners in Pre-Kindy, to help make arrival and departure as smooth and stress-free as possible.
We kindly ask all visitors and families to observe signage and parking guidelines to ensure the safety and efficiency of our shared spaces.
