PLEASE HELP US WITH OUR TRAFFIC CONGESTION Please make arrangements with your child to be picked up on the neighbouring side streets or at the far end of the field near the tennis courts. Currently many parents are parking in the staff parking area while waiting to pick up their child and this causes a safety issue as it is not easy to turn around. Your assistance and support with this will be very much appreciated. Thank you. . |
