Bus Stop Area on Argyle Street

The School has received complaints from bus operators who have been unable to park and pick up students after school on Argyle Street. Parents/guardians are asked to follow the parking rules and keep signposted areas clear for buses. It is important that provisions are made for buses to access the footpath to pick up students on the campus boundary.

Safe Bus Travel

Please take the time to read this safety update.

 

It is really important that students remain seated while the bus is in motion, and that they wear a seatbelt on buses where they are fitted.
