   The church is part of the Good Shepherd Lutheran School site and the existing church building is mainly used
   for school and church services, church youth group and after school and evening orchestral music. Figure 1
   shows the location of the church building on the school site.
   The nearest residential receptors are located along the school north-eastern boundary. The nearest
   residences along the boundary would presently experience noise from:

          the Childcare Centre children and car park (not part of the school or church);
          people using the existing church and the existing timber deck and stairs;
          the car park adjacent the school/ residential boundary;
          the students and staff using the school buildings and facilities; and
          road traffic on Eumundi Road.
