Notice

Parking Lots Declared "Decoration Only" Following Structural Assessment

Term 2, Week 3 · The Bulletin Desk

Following a structural assessment conducted over the mid-term break, the school has issued a clarification regarding the purpose and permitted use of on-campus parking facilities.

The assessment, conducted by external engineers at the request of the Facilities Department, concluded that the parking lots are "primarily decorative" and that regular vehicular use "may lead to collapse of infrastructure." The engineers' report, which runs to forty-seven pages, uses the word "aesthetic" no fewer than twelve times.

Students and staff are advised that parking is now permitted only in a ceremonial capacity. Vehicles may be positioned in parking bays for photographs, ceremonial arrivals, and what the Headmaster described in Monday's assembly as "contemplative adjacency to the school." Driving into or out of parking bays is not recommended.

The Pacific Highway gate remains operational for ceremonial purposes. Vehicles wishing to enter the grounds for aesthetic reasons may do so between 7:00am and 7:05am, at which point they must remain stationary until 3:30pm.

Parents have been asked to drop students at the Hornsby station instead, which the school notes is "structurally sound" and "actually designed for cars."
