Parking Availability
Because there is very limited parking space available, the privilege of parking cars in the college grounds is offered only to Year 13 students. If there are more applications for parks than spaces available a ballot will be run with students placed on a waiting list if unsuccessful. The successful students will be offered a parking space on deposit of $25 per term ( payable in full at the start of the year or $25 per term by arrangement) $50 will be refunded to students at the end of the year if they have not broken any of the regulations listed below. Any student breaking these rules will have his permission to park withdrawn and loss of all monies deposited with the school.
Motor bikes can be parked in the designated area by any student who has his license. No fee is payable for this privilege which may be withdrawn if the regulations are not adhered to.
Student Car Parking AreasStudent cars may be parked in the following areas only:
- the driveway to the Old Boys’ Gymnasium & in the car park at the end of the OB Gym
- the driveway alongside the Sports Centre leading up from the Arts Centre.
NB: students may not park vehicles anywhere around the front of the school, in particular staff parking areas
When these areas are full, students must park outside the grounds.
