A message from Port Stephens Coaches
Port Stephens Coaches has sent the following message to our school community:
"We are aware that the current vehicle capacity on the MCS Stroud bus service has at times been insufficient to accommodate all students wishing to travel, and we fully understand the frustration and inconvenience this situation has caused families and the school community. Please be assured that we take this matter seriously and are actively working toward a solution.
We are currently in discussions with Transport for NSW to secure approval for a larger capacity vehicle to operate on this service. Our goal is to ensure all students are able to travel safely and reliably to and from school without disruption. While this process requires external approval and can take some time, we are continuing to push for a resolution as quickly as possible.
We appreciate the parents & school’s understanding and cooperation while we work through this matter and remain committed to finding a timely solution for the benefit of students and families."
2026 Bus Passes
If your child travels on the bus this is a priority item to have organised.
All students catching the bus in 2026 will need a school travel pass.
