ID Cards 

All students have been issued with a Student ID card. Students MUST use their Student ID card to tap on/off the bus.  Student ID cards are compulsory when boarding a private bus or attending school excursions/camps etc and they must always be carried. Students who board the bus repeatedly without their ID cards will receive a detention or further consequences.  

Student Permission Cards 

Students in Prep – Year 6 require a green permission tag on their bag if they are to disembark the bus and be picked up by someone other than their parent/guardian.  Students in Years 5 and 6 can disembark the bus on their own if they have a green permission tag on their bag for the driver to check.  

Student Afternoon Bus Arrangement & Permission Notices are available on Schoolbox under School Letters.  Please return Student Afternoon Bus Arrangement & Permission Notices to bus@bmg.vic.edu.au. ALL 2025 Student Permission tags have been removed from the students’ bags.  Any student requiring a permission tag for 2026 must have an updated Student Afternoon Bus Arrangement & Permission Notice completed so a 2026 green permission card can be printed and placed on their bag.
