Bus Travel Reminder
AD HOC Bus travellers
Any child who needs to travel on the school bus as a one off situation eg: going home with a friend who is a bus traveller must present the bus driver with a note from home giving the date and who they are travelling on the bus with. This note must first be handed into the College office either before school or during recess or lunchtime (not after school), to be signed and stamped as authorisation to use the bus. Students who present to the bus without this note WILL NOT be allowed to board the bus.
Transport of large, bulky items
Please note that the bus operators are not permitted to transport large items in the external storage compartment of the bus, e.g. bikes or scooters. Should your child need to transport such items please make alternate arrangements. Also remember to park well clear of where the bus is expected to stop.
Thank you for your support with this.
