Parents asked to use school crossing

Parents of children at Pretty Beach Public School have been asked to use the school crossing.

"It has been brought to our attention that several families are crossing Heath Rd at the corner of Pretty Beach Public School near the school sign rather than using the designated school crossing," said principal Ms Deborah Callender.

"In the interest of safety and wellbeing, parents, staff and students are asked to cross the busy road at the designated crossing.

"The area around the school is becoming increasingly busy with a lot of building renovation and more families moving into the area, which means there is an increase in the number of cars and heavy vehicles using the area.

"It is also beneficial for parents and guardians to discuss the importance of road safety with their children."
