Kiss & Ride
At Santa Sabina College, for your convenience and the safety of our students we offer a pick up and drop off service in Carrington Avenue, ‘Kiss and Ride’. The Kiss and Ride zone assists to minimise congestion and risk when used properly by all in our community. These zones operate under the same conditions as no parking zones, i.e. you may stop to drop off or pick up children for a maximum of two minutes.
On the back of your Kiss and Ride sign are the procedures for the use of the Kiss and Ride service. Please note that the Rangers are very active in the area to enforce adherence to council regulations of Kiss and Ride Zones. Please contact the office delmonte@ssc.nsw.edu.au if you require a new or additional sign.
For the safety of children in the Kiss and Ride zone – points to remember
1. Drivers need to remain in their vehicle: To assist with traffic flow in the Kiss and Ride Zone, drivers are encouraged to remain in the car while the children get in and out. To facilitate this, children should travel with bags in the car and not in the boot. If a driver must get out, they must be within three metres of their vehicle.
2. Timely: If your child does not enter or exit the vehicle within two minutes you are required to travel around the block and re-enter the zone at the end of the queue.
3. Kerb Side Entry/Exit Please ensure that your child enters/exits the vehicle on the kerb side for their safety.
4. Exit from Kiss and Ride: Please drive onto The Boulevarde to exit the Kiss and Ride Zone. U turns in this busy area are not permitted for the safety of all.
For the safety of all in our community parents are reminded that u-turns on Carrinton Ave are both illegal and unsafe for our children.
Thank you kindly for your cooperation as we work together to keep our children safe. If you have any questions or need further clarification please don’t hesitate to contact us.
