Please be advised that by submitting an application or having a seat in previous years does not guarantee your son or daughter a seat on a school bus. Parent and guardians are responsible for getting your children to and from school.

 

Written communication will be sent to you via (email or post) by the College during Term 4 to notify each family the outcome of your application.

 

To be eligible for a seat on a Department of Education school provided bus at no cost, a student must:   Attend their nearest Government school and reside 4.8km or more from the school.

 

If your son/daughter does not fit into the above criteria they may be able to access the Department of Education school bus service after all eligible students are allocated a seat and upon payment of $120 per term.

 

Public transport should be accessed if you live within 1.6km of the College or closer than the nearest school bus service.

 

Department of Education school bus service is not a guaranteed service and your son/daughter may be placed on a wait list, in order of eligibility, date of application and ensuring all Department of Education processes and protocols have been addressed.
