Description
Set expectations for safe movement and behaviour in areas where children are present. This notice is essential for schools, childcare facilities, and OSHC settings where staff and visitors need clear reminders to reduce speed and maintain vigilance. Available in colorbond, polypropylene 1.6mm, and self-adhesive vinyl across four sizes (180×250 mm to 450×600 mm). Polypropylene is suitable for indoor corridors, stairwells, and noticeboards; colorbond provides weather durability for outdoor pathways and fenced areas. Larger formats (300×450 mm and above) command immediate attention in high-traffic zones. Platinum Signs delivers Australia-wide within 5–7 days. Childcare networks and schools qualify for volume discounts on orders of 10 or more units. Mounting holes and lamination finishes are available on request.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
Where are the best locations for this sign?
Entrances to play areas, corridors near classrooms, parking areas, and pathways leading to outdoor spaces. Position them at eye level for adults and at heights where children can read them.
Which material suits an outdoor pathway or driveway?
Colorbond 0.55mm is weather-resistant and withstands exposure. For covered walkways or indoor use, polypropylene or vinyl are cost-effective alternatives.
Can I order a mix of sizes for different zones?
Yes. Many facilities use 300×450 mm in main pathways and 180×250 mm in secondary areas. We'll combine sizes into a single order and delivery.
Does this sign need to be laminated?
Lamination is optional but recommended for outdoor or high-traffic areas where the sign may face dirt, moisture, or UV exposure. It extends lifespan and maintains clarity.
What bulk pricing applies to multi-location orders?
Automatic volume pricing is 5–9 signs: 8% off, 10–24 signs: 15% off, 25–49 signs: 24% off, 50–99 signs: 32% off, 100+ signs: 40% off. The configurator is the source of truth and updates the unit price as quantity changes.
