Driving/parking instructions
There will be a drop-off zone for parents/guardians to drop off and pick up children at the bottom of the Community Church driveway (57 Yarra Street)
In this area, you can drive in, drop off your kids, their goodies and table, and then drive away to find a car park elsewhere
The drop off zone will be only for unloading, not for parking, and drivers will need to remain in their cars. Please bring an additional parent/ adult with you to help the kids carry their goodies to their sites
We recommend that all items brought are easy to carry, as there is a short walk involved
