07.01.2022 A good idea to keep kids away from social media/youtube today.

06.01.2022 You may have seen in the most recent school newsletter that we are preparing to approach Roads ACT about traffic issues around Majura PS. One area for concern is Irvine Street (near the Simpson Street intersection) where we are seeing U-turns and people parking right up to the corner, which means cars need to swing right out into the other lane, sometimes into oncoming traffic - creating a hazard for kids crossing the road there. The Irvine Street car park is also a hot spot,... with people driving in to the end to drop off their kids, then doing a U-turn near the bollards. The P&C is now asking for your support. Do you have any issues or stories you’d like to share with us to help in our communication? Please email [email protected] with Traffic Issues in the subject line by Friday October 9th and we will get working on a letter. thanks. See more
