RICHMOUNT PRIMARY SCHOOL
Dear Parent
Parents should not bring their vehicles onto the school grounds at any time, especially at the beginning or end of the school day. A minority of parents have driven their cars up onto the school playground while pupils have been walking into school. This has been most prevalent on wet days. This is obviously a very serious matter involving the safety of our pupils. A number of parents have raised concerns and brought this to my attention. In future the school gate will remain closed in an effort to solve this problem. As you know I have been lobbying the Education Authority to provide a drop off area and increased parking and progress is being made on this issue. Thank you in anticipation of your support.
