Most students residing in New South Wales are eligible to apply for free bus transport to and from school.
Such transport is provided only after presentation of an appropriate travel pass to the driver upon boarding the bus.
Parents/Guardians must apply for a new travel pass in any of the following circumstances:
- When the student has changed schools
- When the student has changed residential address
- When the student is moving from Year 2 to Year 3 at the same school
- When the student is moving from Year 6 to Year 7 at the same school
- When the student repeats a school year
An "Application for Travel by Eligible School Students" form is obtainable from your school or the office of Martin's Albury, 66 Fallon Street, Albury. After obtaining the signatures of a parent/guardian and the principal of the school, the completed application is processed by Martin's Albury on behalf of the NSW Department of Transport and Infrastructure. A laminated Travel Pass is then issued by Martin's Albury to the appropriate school for distribution.
You can download the Martin's Albury School Bus Pass Application form (3MB). You will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to view the form.
School travel is only available between home and school for school attendance and is available on school days only.
Passes are not transferrable and must be shown on demand. Therefore all students are advised to carry their Travel Pass with them on all school days. Students must present their Pass to the driver upon boarding or to a driver or inspector when requested.
For those students not eligible for NSW Mnistry of Transport Travel Passes (for example Primary School students who live less than 1.6km (radial distance) from the school or High School students who live less than 2km (radial distance) from the school), ordinary sectional concession fares apply.
However, a pass can be purchased for a Term, Semester or Year, for a forward, return journey or both. The cost is discounted by 25% for a term, 35% for a semester and 45% for a year.
