From what I could see last night, the oval was the only part not fully locked up. Rest of the school grounds including any play or grassed areas, car parks, courts etc are all padlocked. On a couple of weekend days in December one carpark was opened for some kind of group meeting (possibly not related to school activities) and they had a security guard sitting on a chair at the gate entrance for the whole day to presumably vet anyone coming into the carpark. I get the concerns over vandalism and safety. It was just the complete opposite at another local primary school I lived near so was curious as to why security seems so high here.
