Travel to school
Many of our families are lucky to live close enough to the school for their children to walk or ride a bike. Bikes and scooters can be securely left in the covered bike racks. All students need to wear a helmet and children under 10 years of age should be accompanied by an adult. If driving your children to school, please take note of the signage for parking to ensure compliance with Cessnock City Council.
