Bus travel

Most students travel to and from the campus by bus.

The Red Bus Company services our campus and we enjoy an excellent working partnership with the company. Students who live more than 2 kilometres from the campus are entitled to a free Opal card to make the journey. Application forms are available online.

Opal cards may only be used when travelling to and from the campus. They cannot be used for sport buses or excursions.   

Supervision – bus duty

The Principal, Deputy Principals, and Head Teachers do bus duty every afternoon. Students are expected to remain within the COLA area of the campus until called for their bus. Students are expected to have their bus passes out and line up in single file to enter the buses. Students enter the buses according to the week. A Deputy Principal or the Principal will direct students to enter buses in a single line using the following order:

  • Week A – girls
  • Week B – boys.

Conduct on the buses

Conduct on the buses is expected to be of the highest standard. On arrival at campus, all students travelling by bus must enter campus grounds immediately and move into the main quadrangle. In the afternoon, students will report to their bus area in the COLA and wait to be called for their bus.

All students travelling by bus must follow the code of conduct for bus travel issued by the Department of Transport.
