Dogs on School Playground
It has been reported that parents/carers may not be aware that bringing dogs or other animals onto the school playground is prohibited. Whilst it is understood that dogs play a major part in the life of children and families, there are many children and adults who suffer allergies or a fear of dogs. If you must bring a dog to the school when dropping off or collecting your child, please wait outside the school grounds at the McGrath St gate and instruct your child to go on the walkers line at dismissal. Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
