Request to not visit skate park before school

Umina Beach Public School principal Ms Lyn Davis has asked students to come directly to school and not visit the Umina skate park before school.

Ms Davis made the request after an accident involving a student at the skate park before school on May 14 required four staff to support the student while an ambulance was called.

She said students who visited the skate park were often late for school.

"I know that the children like to use the skate park before school.

"However, there have been many times when the students are late for school because of this.

"If children could ride straight to school and not play at the park before school, it may avoid injury and late arrival."
