From the Assistant Principal...

Bus Travel

Lately we have had some concerns raised over the behaviour of some of our students on the Edwards buses. Please see the below information on appropriate bus behaviour:

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES

 Develop a positive relationship with the driver by greeting them each morning and afternoon.

 Abide by the bus rules that are verbalised and also displayed in the school bus.

 Respect the driver’s directions and understand that all instructions are given to maintain the safety of all passengers.

 Report harassment on the bus to the bus company or to Mrs Reinke so that it can be addressed.

PARENT/CAREGIVERS’ RESPONSIBILITIES:

 Reinforce the importance of the bus rules with your children who are using the service.

 Develop a clear understanding of the processes that are used in response to student behaviour on the bus.

 Support the school in ensuring that the safety of students is paramount.

 Report any issues relating to bus behaviour to the bus company or the Assistant Principal.

Compass
