Changed Traffic Conditions – Saturday 3 May & Monday 5 May
In line with the building works currently in progress around campus, the coming week will see some major progression with the installation of the new classrooms. These new classrooms will arrive at Oxley by truck and will be craned into position.
The safety of the entire community is our priority during this time and we ask that you read the information below carefully to see how you may be impacted.
Saturday 3 May – Morning
- An external Traffic Management company will be managing car and pedestrian traffic on Railway Road on Saturday. There will be one-way traffic going along Railway Road for the entire day. Please expect there to be some delays during this time.
- All buses for Saturday Sport will depart from the Senior School Pick Up Zone. Parents may drop students at the Senior School Pick Up Zone via the second driveway, which will be operational until approximately 9.30am.
- The First Driveway will be open all day for car and pedestrian access to the College. The Coffee Cart will be in operation outside the PCC, however most of Founders Field will be an exclusion zone.
- Parents needing to access Bray Fields can still do so, however you may experience some traffic delays outside the College.
- Parents and Students are asked to follow the directions of Traffic Control as well as signage in place to ensure everyone’s safety.
Saturday 3 May – Afternoon
- The Second Driveway will be closed in the afternoon. Parents picking up students from buses are asked to park in the First Driveway only. Buses will drop off on Railway Road, near the entrance to the First Driveway.
- Traffic Management will remain in place for the entire day. We ask that you follow their directions at all times.

The exclusion zone for the First Driveway will extend for the remainder of the First Driveway, including the turning circle, the Junior School Staff Car Park and the Junior School Playground.
- A section of Governors Field will be roped off to allow for parents and staff to park.
- A student drop off / pick up zone will be established in the section of the First Driveway that is still open. A turning circle will be put in place on Governors Field to facilitate turning around. Please follow the directions of staff and Traffic Management to access.
- For pedestrian access to the Junior School, parents and students will need to walk across Founders Field and past the Pavilion, through the Maths Courtyard, up onto Elvo Lawn to the colonnade outside the Year 4 classrooms, and into the Junior School quadrangle. There will be staff to guide parents and students.
- Pick up for Junior School students will still happen at the regular time however pick up will be from the temporary pick-up zone at the bottom of the First Driveway. A turning circle will be put in place on Governors Field to facilitate turning around.
