Parking and bicyles
Please be aware of the neighbours when parking to drop off and pick up pupils, as complaints have been made that drives and the yellow lines are not being observed.
The yellow zigzag lines are there for the pupils’ protection when coming and going from school.
The Traffic Regulation Order regarding the yellow zigzag lines is now in place and fines of £70 will be imposed for car owners that do not conform to these new rules.
The City Council have their own Civil Enforcement Officers who can enforce this legislation. Car stickers highlighting the need to ‘respect the yellow zigzags’, are available from the school office. St Winifred’s School is supporting Southampton City Council’s drive to ensure the yellow zigzags outside city schools are observed.
Parents collecting pupils from After School Care are requested NOT to park on the school drive before 5:15pm as there are clubs finishing up until this time and therefore pupils leaving the building by other doors. Also pupils leaving on bikes need to be able to negotiate leaving the grounds in safety.
The police have also asked me to remind you that riding bicycles on the pavement is an offence.
