Opal Card

On behalf of Transit Systems NSW, the bus operator that provides your school bus services, regarding student use of the School Opal card:

It is a condition of the use of a School Opal card that students must tap on at the beginning of a trip and tap off at the end of a trip at an Opal Card Reader, when they travel to and from school.

Please refer to the Transport for NSW website for further details: https://transportnsw.info/school-pass-terms

Opal data gathered by tapping on and off is used to determine demand for bus services. If students fail to tap on and tap off, services to our school may be reduced or even cancelled due to the lack of recorded patronage.

With this in mind, we ask for your assistance in reminding students that tapping on and off at the beginning and end of each trip is one of the conditions of using a School Opal card.
