🚸 Help Us Keep Our Kids Safe! 🚸
The Waitākiri School Board, staff and many of our parents are really concerned about the safety of our tamariki on the roads around school.
We’ve been working with NZTA and Christchurch City Council to push for safety improvements — especially at the Burwood Rd/QEII Drive/Travis Road and Burwood/Mairehau Roads intersections, as well as directly outside of school.
One of the biggest roadblocks is that both NZTA and CCC need more data to back up making changes.
This is where you can help!
If you’ve witnessed or been involved in any accidents or near misses in these areas, please email us at:
office@waitakiri.school.nz
Or please phone our school office 03 383 2736 anytime (you can leave a message).
Your experiences can help us make a strong case for change.
Thanks so much for your support — every bit of info helps make our roads safer for our kids.
