A student narrowly missed colliding with a bus last week, outside the Junior School, escaping severe injury.
We are incredibly grateful for the bus driver’s attention, slow speed and good driving which averted what was a serious near-miss.
We remind everyone – parents, staff and students – to take great care when on foot or in cars, on or around college grounds and carparks, and on Ibis Road, Owl Drive and Ridge Road, particularly now we have very little people starting at the ELC.
Please:
- Slow down to 10kms/hour on college grounds – it may just save your child, your student, your teacher, your friend.
- Be considerate and courteous:
- use a car park if you are parking for longer than 2 minutes
- be very mindful of the school buses at peak times, stay behind them and please do not ‘unsight’ the driver’ by pulling out in front of them
- always give way to pedestrians and buses on college grounds
- Obey the ‘Give Way’ sign exiting the large car park on MSS campus
- Give Way when entering the MSS campus from the roundabout
- Always give way to buses and please do not overtake them
- Use indicators while driving on college grounds
- Supervise young children and students and keep them close to you in car parks and traffic areas of the college
Safety is the whole college community’s responsibility.
Please help us to keep everyone safe.
