Info to Parents: Drop-Off Zones within KRC during Rainy Days

Dear Parents/Gaurdians,

 

The school will open our covered car park to facilitate the traffic flow of morning arrivals at KRC during rainy days. This is an additional drop-off zone other than the 2 zones located at the covered link walk and at the Meeting Point.

 

Please see the attached plan on the 3 drop-off zones within KRC during rainy days.

 

We would like to highlight the control of traffic flow during rainy days as following:

 

a. Vehicles entering Gate A will first be directed to the Meeting Point for drop-off.

 

b. When the car queue at the Meeting Point has reached the zebra crossing, vehicles will then be directed into the covered car park for drop-off.

 

c. When the queue of vehicles inside the covered car park has extended out onto the driveway, parents could then drop-off their child along the covered link walk.

 

d. Vehicles which have already done the drop-off at the covered link walk are requested to switch on their right signal light, so that our staff on duty at the car park entrance will direct you to exit the school.

 

We will deploy more staff on duty to assist your child alighting at the 3 drop-off zones.  We seek your co-operation and follow the instruction of our staff when they direct you to either one of the zones to drop-off your child.

 

Thank you for your continued support and partnership to make NYPS a safe environment for our children.

 

Mr William Woo

Operations Manager
