School crossings to close

LONG-serving school crossing supervisor Kerrie Bartholomew has voiced deep concern for student and community safety following a decision that will see some supervised school crossings in Stawell come to an end. The Northern Grampians Shire Council recently confirmed it will cease operating school crossings across the district. With VicRoads also declining to take on responsibility, Stawell West Primary School is among several local schools that will lose its dedicated crossing supervisor.
