Free Bus Travel
Eligibility for free bus travel is determined by Public Transport Victoria and the Department of Education. To maintain accurate records, all bus travellers must complete a new application form each year—available at the school office or for download below.
Free Bus Travel:
Available to students who live more than 4.8km from RHCS and for those within 4.8km if seats are available.
If your child does not meet the criteria, a fare-paying position may be available at $125 per child, per term (invoiced each term).
Once your application is submitted, the bus coordinator will confirm eligibility and start date.

Roles & Changes
Roles are taken every afternoon on each of our bus services to ensure all bus travellers are accounted for. In order to keep to schedule, it is important for us to have record of your child’s permanent travel schedule. If any changes are made to this schedule, the office must be contacted. Older students can complete a bus note on the day of the change, or parents can call the school and leave a message before 2:30pm on our bus hotline.
All children using our buses must adhere to the behaviour code of conduct, which is outlined on the application forms. Failure to comply with this code of conduct may result in your child being removed from this service.
If you have any further questions regarding buses, please contact Office Admin on (03) 5989 2321.
