Bike Safety

As the weather is getting nicer, many students will be planning to ride their bikes to school. Please ensure that you bring a bike lock as there is no storage available inside the school and we no longer have a coded bike storage area. Bikes are to be locked on the bike rack at the Highfield Street entrance. Be careful riding and follow road safety rules.
