The Kiwi Coach bus will collect and drop your son at the bus stop closest to your home. Boys are provided with a swipe card which enables them to swipe on and offf the bus. This card is monitored and connected with the Kiwi Coach app which allows parents to know that their son is safely on or off the bus.
Year 8 boys are the leaders on the bus and a Code of Conduct is to be signed by all boys using the buses and their parents. The youngest boys sit at the front of the bus with increasing year levels seated towards the rear ofthe bus. Kiwi Coaches use the same bus drivers for each route which allows for familiarity particularly for our younger boys.
Boys in Years 1 - 4 who catch a bus from school at the end of the day go from their classroom to Treetops After School Care until the bus departs at 3:40pm. At Treetops the boys are provided with afternoon tea and their homework is supervised. They are then escorted to the bus stop at the appropriate time. This service is free of charge for those boys. An enrolment form for Treetops After School Care would need to be completed - please contact treetops@kings.school.nz.
