School Bus & Transport Information
School Bus Information Regarding the road closures 2/2/2023
**Due to road closure on Scenic Dr, Ritchies have made the decision to start any Scenic Dr runs from Rangimarie Rd on the corner of Scenic and Rangimarie. We will be making a u turn there and all drop off and pick up will be at the bus stop on the corner. For any more information please contract operations for further support.
Woodlands Park – As Scenic Drive is closed between Titirangi roundabout and Woodlands Park Rd, our plan is to start the run from the top end of Woodlands Park Rd by the filter station and work our way down Woodlands Park Rd (reverse direction) to Huia Rd roundabout then left into Huia Rd to the Titirangi Rd roundabout. Reverse in afternoon.
Wood Bay/ Otitori Bay – Park Rd/ South Titirangi Rd would be a practical start point here if students can make their way there from further down. This will be the final drop in the afternoon.
Atkinson Rd – Official diversion from AT is via Daffodil St and Konini Rd so this will also apply for the school runs.
2023 Bus Agreement Form
Our focus for 2023 is to maintain behaviour and safety on the buses. Therefore, we have a Bus Agreement between student, parent/caregiver and the school to ensure that all parties are aware of the expectation of behaviour on the bus and consequences for inappropriate behaviour. We would appreciate your support in discussing the Bus Agreement Form which is a Google form which is in the link below. Please complete this form by Monday 13th February 2023.
If a bus is running late, a notification will be sent out via the school app to inform you how late it will be. When you download this app, make sure you allow push notifications, so that you receive messages from the school.
