Bikes and Scooters
Children in Year 5 and 6 are required to have a bike license with a completed consent form from parents or caregivers to ride independently. (Forms are available from the school office).
Without a license or for younger year levels, children are required to be accompanied by a parent or caregiver to and/or from school. When registering and obtaining consent from our school, children will be provided with 1 High Visibility vest for their safety and may use the scooter/bike storage shed.
Rules and recommendations
· All bike license rules must be adhered to.
· Closed shoes, high visibility vests and helmets must be worn.
· Scooters and bikes should not be ridden in school grounds after 8.30am and before 3.30pm.
· Bikes and scooters must be walked across the crossings and into school grounds.
· Bikes and scooters must be parked in the bike and scooter shed which is locked throughout the day.
· Students registered with the school for permission to ride only enter the shed area to park or collect their own bike or scooter.
Park and Walk – “the easy option” for those restricted by distance or time
We highly support reducing traffic congestion around our school and encourage exercise amongst the children, therefore, we have designated 3 drop points carefully chosen to avoid roads and utilize one zebra crossing point where need be. This also supports road safety and encourages carpooling with friends and neighbours. Each option is only a 3-5 minute walk and supports the children to be a part of our programme.
