School Bus
To book a permanent place on the bus:
- Submit a Bus Information and Bus Code of Conduct Form to Admin
- Purchase a bus pass from Admin
The cost is $50 for a 20 ride bus pass or $10 for a 4-ride bus pass ($2.50 per trip).
Temporary Changes – Morning
Last minute changes to morning collections (e.g. illness, change to parents’ shifts) can be sent via text message to the bus driver on the phone number listed below. This message should be sent to the driver at the earliest opportunity, preferably the night before or early, on the morning of the change.
Temporary Changes – Afternoon
Parents of students who regularly catch the bus in the afternoon are required to notify the School via the Admin Office prior to 2:30pm on the day if a student will not be on the bus that afternoon. This can be done by telephone or email. This enables the School to amend the bus roll for that day and prevent delays and confusion for the bus driver.
Your child’s safety is of the utmost importance to us. We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to working with us by ensuring the information we have from you is current at all times. Please contact Administration for further information 5437 5800 or admin@ccps.qld.edu.au
