School bags and important traffic information

Maxine Chopard – Assistant to the Deputy Principal

Emanuel School bags are a compulsory school item

A reminder all Emanuel students are expected to carry an Emanuel School bag. We will be focusing on this early next term.

The Uniform Shop has stocked up and have shared their hours for the first week of Term 3 to enable all our students to own and use an Emanuel School bag.

The only exception, for obvious reasons, is the present Year 12 students who will be leaving school by the end of Term 3.

Uniform shop hours

First WeekTerm 3:

Monday 17 July (Staff Development Day): 9 am-4 pm

Tuesday 18 July (first day for students): 8 am-12 noon

Thursday 20 July: 12 noon – 4 pm

Important changes to Kingsford Nine Ways roundabout

From Friday 30 June, the Kingsford Nine Ways intersection will become signalised with traffic signals, as part of work to prepare for the CBD and South East Light Rail. The removal of the Nine Ways roundabout will also result in a number of traffic changes. 

Please note: Buses on Anzac Parade will continue as normal during this phase construction. There will be minor impacts to some buses on Gardeners Road that use Nine Ways to access Anzac Parade southbound. Services affected are Route X93 Central to Little Bay Express (PM peak only) as well as a small number of school specials from Randwick Boys High, Randwick Girls High, Brigidine College, Marcellin College and Waverley College, who we are speaking directly with regarding specific details.

Below is a link re-notification of construction work including a traffic map showing the associated traffic changes to Nine Ways Intersection. If you would like further information about the project, please don’t hesitate to get in contact with me direct or please visit the website below.
