,
During the last school holidays we extended the staff carpark (behind Room 6).
We are waiting for chip seal to be applied prior to using it for parking.
One possible use of this area will be to have the after-school care minivans park
in this area. This means the vans will no longer need to park outside the main
office (and often in the disabled parking spaces) to wait for the children to
arrive and embark. Hopefully this means less congestion for the 2 minute
parking area and a greater flow of traffic in the area.
The classrooms and enviro group vege gardens have been moved to the western side of Room9. The veges are
growing incredibly well in this area and
the children are loving looking after
them.
