Our traffic volunteers, The PAC and Ms Merani have worked diligently with the City of Burnaby Engineers, The RCMP and ICBC Traffic Control to create a system that promotes SAFETY OVER CONVENIENCE. Together with our many pylons marking the street, our parent volunteers work hard at maintaining an even traffic flow. COURTESY AND RESPECTARE A REQUIREMENT in our school zone.
GUIDELINES FOR DROP OFF AND PICK-UP
In front of the school on Stratford Street is our “Drop-Off & Pick-Up Zone”. If you are the first one to stop in this Zone, you must proceed forward to the cones as though you are first in a line-up, much like the taxi process at hotels and airports. Once one vehicle leaves, you keep moving forward.
Please drop-off or pick-up your child(ren) from the PASSENGER SIDE ONLY.
When leaving, always check for traffic, signal and pull away with caution.
NOTE: U-TURNS ARE NOT PERMITTED IN ANY SCHOOL ZONE, this includes using a residential driveway for the purpose of changing direction on the street.
When in the “Zone”, you must REMAIN IN YOUR VEHICLE. If you need to leave your vehicle for any reason, you must leave the “Zone” and find parking elsewhere.
If you are picking up your child(ren) and the “Zone” is full, proceed down the center lane and circle the block and try again. Please DO NOT attempt to parallel park in the “Zone”.
Please pull over to the curb when stopping to pick up your child so that traffic can continue to flow through the center lane.
