Face Masks on Public Transport

A reminder that the current COVID regulations state that face masks are mandatory on public transport.  

 

When travelling on public transport you must wear a fitted face mask covering your nose and mouth and ensure you wear it for your entire journey. This applies to anyone eight years old and over. 

 

It has been seen and reported that Cheltenham Secondary students who travel to and from school on the public bus are not complying and are not wearing masks. Wearing a face mask while travelling on public transport helps to keep you and others safe and by doing so, upholds one of our college values of sense of community.


E-Scooters

 

Electric scooter laws in Victoria state that electric scooters cannot be legally used on a road or any road-related areas, including footpaths, shared paths or public areas.  They can only legally be ridden on private property.  The fine for riding an illegal device in a public area is $909.  Other penalties may also apply.

 

Please do not ride E-Scooters to school.
