BUS SERVICES

2022 Changes
The school has been informed that there will be changes to school bus services commencing, the start of the 2022 school year that may impact on the journey to or from school. The changes to services will be available within Translink’s Journey Planner -  https://jp.translink.com.au two weeks prior to the start of the 2022 school year. All students that utilise bus services for school travel will need to re-plan their journey to and from school during that period. 
 
Any questions related to school travel can be directed to Translink via telephone on 13 12 30 or via the link available at https://translink.com.au/contact-us​

  • Students are encouraged, where possible, to travel to an​d from school by bus. This helps to reduce traffic congestion at the school's gates and teaches students valuable skills for later in life.
  • The school bus arrives and departs from the bus stop on Newnham Road directly in front of the school.
  • For information about what other commuter bus services are available, students, parents and carers can visit Translink's Journey Planner at www.translink.com.au​.

  • When crossing at children's crossings, only commence crossing the road when directed by the crossing supervisor.
  • When crossing at pedestrian refuges and unsignalised intersections, only commence crossing when there is a suitable gap in traffic. Inexperienced pedestrians should be accompanied by an adult when crossing at these locations.​
