Children are transported to school by bus.

Beaconsfield Schools’ tender process undertaken in conjunction with ASTN was secured by Atkinson & Dossett.

Please contact your bus driver directly, if your child is not going to be on the bus in the morning. Also ring the school, as soon as possible, if your child is not going to be on the bus, in the afternoon.

If your child is going to someone else’s house after school, bus seats are tight at the moment, so you may need to transport the children privately to accommodate this arrangement. Each bus has a roll taken at the end of the day. Your child needs to let the monitor know if they are not travelling on the bus. Senior children act as Bus Safety Wardens on the bus and report any misbehaviour to the teachers. Please let the school know if you have a concern about behaviour on the bus. All children are required to sign the Bus Code of Conduct and abide by this code.

Children are required to wear the free vest for safety reasons.

If you have any concerns please contact the Bus Controller – Sharon Dahlenbury on 03 684 6933 or 027 431 6452. You may wish to contact Chris or Wayne directly at Atkinson & Dossett on 03 614 7826.
