Dental Visit Correction

Please be advised of the following correction:

The Dental Planet van is currently on site to see students from Years 9-13 from
7 - 23 February.
This is not the Auckland Regional Dental Service (ARDS) which looks after our Year 7-8 students. We are awaiting a confirmed date for their visit later in the year.

Our sincere apologies for any confusion and inconvenience.


Parking - School Drop Off & Pick Up

Please help keep our students safe by abiding with the below restrictions.

Drop them off away from the school gate. Use the Centreway Road entrance or drop them a few hundred metres down the road on Riverside Road where congestion is less and there are legal parking areas.

Do not park or stop in the signed areas opposite the school frontage (on both sides of the road). This is a hazard and puts everyone at risk. Parking wardens may be used to enforce this no-stopping requirement.

Vehicles are prohibited up any of the school driveways or in the bus bay before and after school. You are not allowed to drop your child in the school grounds by vehicle.

Hatton Road
NO STOPPING on the western side of Hatton Road even to just drop students off during 7
- 9:30am so that this route is clear for the buses. The same applies for the afternoons
between 3 - 4pm.

Centreway Nexus Business Park (Previous Council premises parking) and Centrestage Theatre.

Please note this is now private property and vehicles will be towed.
