Safety measures

The safety of our learners and staff is of utmost importance, therefore we would like to bring the following arrangements to your attention:

  • The big gate at the main entrance of the school (vehicle entrance) and sports gate will be closed at all times. Parents must please use the reception gate in 15th Avenue and report at reception. The main gate and sports gate may not be used by parents to enter the school premises during the above times.
  • After school, Gr. 1-3 learners will go to the sport gate supervised by their teachers (small gate at the rugby field).   Learners that are not fetched will go back to their waiting classes.
  • Grade R learners must be fetched at 13:00 at the reception gate next to the Gr. R classes.
  • Grade R-3 learners who do not go home directly after school, must go back to their waiting classes and wait for their parents to fetch them. Parents that are a bit late, must go to the office from where the learners will be called. 
  • There is a huge challenge with learners not being collected on time and this poses a safety risk to our learners after school unless they are involved with extra mural/cocurricular activities. The teacher on detention duty will only be responsible for learners in detention. Please note that teachers are only required to stay at school until 14:30. Learners will not have access to the school grounds after closing time of the school unless they are involved with extra mural/co-curricular activities.

DURING SCHOOL HOURS:

  • Parents that need to fetch their children during school hours, must please report to reception and sign the register. The secretaries will then call the children.
  • Should a parent need to see an educator during school hours, an appointment will have to be made via the office a day before.
  • Learners that participate in extramural activities must make use of the sport ground gate to go home. Coaches will manage the opening and closing of the gate.
