Learner Driver Guidelines

It’s always a significant moment for our senior students when they gain their Learner Driver permits and their P-Plates. We would ask you to note the guidelines in this regard. 

Learner drivers are discouraged from driving on to campus property and are asked to change over drivers at the front of the college where possible, as we have the potential to have over 150 learner drivers coming onto the campus.

The main reason is that the campus has only the one entrance and exit, which often leads to traffic build up. At the times of the day for student drop off and pick-up, you can appreciate we have increased movement by our much younger students and families using internal crossings and this, coupled with our hilly terrain, brings a need for high levels of vigilance and a duty of care to our community.

P-Platers - Those students who progress over time to their P-Plates and who drive their own vehicles to school are required to park off campus due to the parking space restrictions on campus.

Parent Lounge: The same communication can be accessed via Parent Lounge (along with important student information, health records, etc). Contact our Administration team to access your Parent Lounge login details: ncc@northside.qld.edu.au 

College App: The College app serves as a portal to quickly access the website, newsletters, Parent Lounge, calendar and more, along with communicating reminders and updates via a phone notification App installation & Password
