School staff, supervise the children as they wait for their buses in the afternoon and attendance rolls are marked to record which children boarded which bus. All children travelling on buses are expected to abide by the Code of conduct for school students travelling on buses, which can be viewed at https://translink.com.au/travel-with-us/school-travel/school-travel-info/code-of-conduct.

Any inquiries/complaints about bus runs, costs, behaviour on buses etc. are to be directed to the bus operators in the first instance.

Bus Code of Conduct

A significant number of school students in Queensland travel on buses to attend school. All students have the right to a safe and enjoyable journey between home and school. In the morning, a pleasant trip to school can set the tone for a day of productive learning.

The purpose of the Code of Conduct for School Students Travelling on Buses (PDF,903KB) is to provide guidelines for those involved in the safe travel of school students on buses.
