BUSES

We have 3 bus runs that service our school provided by Hodgson Motors.  We share this service with Te Awamutu College.  We take the view that behaviour on buses is a shared responsibility between the bus company, parents and the school.  Misbehaviour that endangers other pupils is not acceptable.

The school reserves the right to withhold permission to travel on buses in these cases.

(N.B.)  Please ensure the school is contacted as early as possible by way of a note, if there is a change to normal routine.  For safety reasons children will not be permitted to alter their travel arrangements unless the school has received notification by a note from the parents (or phone in emergencies).
