Parent Teacher Interviews

Camp Updates

If your child requires medication when on camp, each medication must be prescribed by a medical practitioner, and each individual medication requires its own set of Administering medication forms (green forms).

If you require additional forms, these are available from the school office. Green forms are to accompany the medication in the sealed bag it is handed in, on the day the medication is due to the school office. Green forms handed in early and not accompanying medication will be returned to families.

Each medication must have a label from the chemist and the label information must match the signed doctor’s consent regarding patient name, medication and dosages (including times and amounts). Please ensure chemist labels match the instructions as per the script and information the prescribing practitioner has provided on medication paperwork before you leave the chemist.

Medications can only be accepted from and returned to a parent or carer of the student via the school administration office on the dates listed above.

Safety @ Aspley SS: Keeping Drop-Offs and Pick-Ups Safe

To ensure the safety of all our students, families and staff, it is vital that all vehicles and pedestrians follow the school routines and road rules in and around the school throughout the school day.

Horn Road Carpark

• When entering the Horn Road car park, please ensure you use only the clearly marked points when entering and exiting. 
  
• An internal lane is designated for cars moving through the car park. If you are joining the pick-up and drop-off line, you need to stay in the external marked lane and stop safely at one of the five numbered bays (1–5) along the fence, toward the carpark exit. Students must wait until their vehicle has come to a complete stop before passing through the fence opening and entering their vehicle through the closest passenger-side door to the fence. The pick-up and drop-off bays are designated loading zones from 7:00-9:00 am and 2:00-6:00 pm on school days.

• Should you wish to park in the carpark, designated vehicle and clearly signed disability parking bays are available. Only vehicles with a valid disability permit that is clearly visible from the outside of the vehicle may use these spaces. Unauthorised use of disability car parks may result in a fine up to $667.60.

• Please ensure you follow the road markings and signs in place to safely move through the carpark. When entering and exiting the carpark internal lane is designated for cars moving through the car park.
• All pedestrians are to use the three pedestrian crossings that connect the footpaths and walkways, to ensure safe crossing within the car park. Fencing has also been installed for added safety near pedestrian access points.

• Pedestrians wishing to enter and exit the school grounds via Horn Road are asked to use the footpath located between the Horn Road car park and old prep building. This is a safety measure, especially at peak times, to limit the pedestrian use the carpark driveways.
• Staff are on duty to supervise students and assist with exiting and entering vehicles in this carpark and Eastern Hall areas from 8:15-8:45 am and 3:00-3:20 pm each school day.

 Horn Road Street Parking

• Vehicles can use the signed areas on Horn Road as a drop-off and pick-up zone during the designated loading zone hours of 7:00-9:00 am and 2:00-4:00 pm on school days. Outside of these hours, the area is a designated parking area for vehicles.

• Pedestrians wishing to enter and exit the school grounds at this loading zone are asked to use the footpath located between the Horn Road car park and old prep building or the administration building.

 Maundrell Terrace Loading Zone

• The pick-up and drop-off zone located on Maundrell Terrace is a designated loading zone from 7:00-9:00 am and 2:00-4:00 pm on school days. The area located in front of this zone is a no-standing area at all times. Please adhere to the road markings indicating the perimeter of the loading zone.
• Staff are on duty to supervise students waiting in the seated pick-up area inside the school fence line and those entering and exiting the Maundrell Terrace pedestrian gate from 3:00-3:20 pm each school day. Students are to remain behind the school fence as a safety measure whilst awaiting collection at the end of the school day.

 

Crossing Safely

• When crossing roads, driveways and designated crossing areas, pedestrians and students should stay with their parent/carer. If crossing Maundrell Terrace, all pedestrians are to use the designated pedestrian crossing at the intersection with Horn Road, waiting until the green man appears indicating it is safe to cross.
• Crossing roads from between parked cars and running between cars should be avoided at all costs.

Together, we can ensure we are all safe using the roads, carparks and crossings surrounding the school. Thank you for using the designated crossing areas and carparks, driving slowly in the school zones, and being patient in the busy-ness of the peak school drop-off and pick-up times.
