IMPORTANT reminder for ALL ākonga:

You are only allowed to cross at the Meanee lights if you are turning to head back down Meanee rd towards the dairy - you are not to cross here and turn towards Bledisloe School/Taradale! This is to avoid the drive way where cars are coming and going - we do not want you getting hit or causing an accident! 

If you are going to Bledisloe school to collect a sibling or to go to Beyond the Bell, you must cross at the Murphy Road crossing where the road patrollers are and walk down to the lights. This is the same for those walking to Taradale. 

This is about your safety amongst busy traffic on the roads! Please follow these instructions!
