Transportation

The bus service is subsidized by the State Government for students travelling to the Catholic school or college situated closest to their home address. All students and parents/guardians who are using the subsidized bus service must complete and sign the application forms including the Code of Conduct declaration before bus travel can commence.

The Code of Conduct is a set of ‘rules’ about behaviour on the buses to ensure a safe journey for all students. The form is available on the Marian College website, from the Front Office or the Bus Coordinator.
