Please remember, whether dropping off or picking up your children, that the school is on a very busy road so take care at all times.  Cars should not park in the yellow box immediately outside the school at any time.  Parking bays near the bottle banks are wider than average to accommodate wider vehicles.  Cars parking at Clogherhead side of the gate are requested to park parallel to school wall to allow pupils access to pedestrian walkway to gate.  Cars parking at Dunleer side are asked to reverse into the parking spaces.
