• IMPORTANT TRAFFIC INFORMATION TO PARENTS

  Thu 08 Dec 2016

  PSNI Officers have visited the school and advised me to inform you that they have been monitoring the traffic around the school at busy school times. They have noted incidences of speeding and parking infringements.  They have advised that they will now issue fixed penalty notices and/or points to those deemed to be breaking the traffic laws without further warning.

   

  Keep our children safe by parking safely. PSNI would like to see our parents making good use of the car park behind the fire station.
