The City Traffic Police  

The traffic outside the Pre-Junior Campus in the morning and in the afternoon is a cause of inconvenience to parents and of great concern to the school authorities. In order to facilitate the parents and ease the traffic flow during these rush hours, the city traffic police have devised a plan and seek cooperation from parents for implementing it effectively, as it is consequently for their convenience.

Parents are requested to ensure that they strictly observe the following practices in the morning and in the afternoon:

• Observing the one way traffic policy, all vehicles must enter from the Katchi Abadi & Mobile Zone area [see map].
• All vehicles must exit from the road leading towards the Gaddafi Stadium Roundabout.
• All drivers must refrain from taking a U-Turn at any point on the road to avoid being fined.
• All drivers must be instructed to avoid double-parking.
• Children's bags must be inside the cars as opposed to being in the trunks of the cars, as that unnecessarily hampers the traffic flow.

The map with the alternative route is provided below. All parents and staff members must ensure that they and their drivers adhere to the traffic rules.

The City Traffic Police and Resource Academia's administration anticipate and appreciate everyone's cooperation.

Winter Uniform

From Monday, November 03, 2008, all students must be in winter uniform. However, the wearing of cardigans/sweaters or blazers/jackets is optional up to Monday, November17, 2008. After this date all cardigans/sweaters or blazers/jackets are to be worn.
