Road safety around the College is a key concern for us at Thomas Hassall, as we seek to ensure our children are safe as they arrive and leave the College.
We understand there is significant vehicle traffic around the College, which makes it difficult for families to feel safe allowing local students to walk to College. For many years we have wanted a School Crossing Supervisor and we are excited to announce that we now have a School Crossing Supervisor on Kingsford Smith Avenue in front of Junior School every school day 7:30-8:30am and 2:30-3:30pm. The School Crossing Supervisor controls the traffic at the crossing and ensures pedestrians safely cross at the crossing.
Parents can now be confident that children walking to school will be assisted to cross the road safely at the crossing. This may also change your drop off plans, as you can drop your child in surrounding streets knowing they will be assisted to cross Kingsford Smith Ave safely.
Lena lives locally and is very excited to be joining our Thomas Hassall Community as our very own School Crossing Supervisor. Lena has worked with children in different roles for the last 10 years, but this is her first role as a School Crossing Supervisor.
Next time you are crossing the road, make sure you say hello to Lena!
