Depending of what service your daughter is catching, students meet at the locations below: 

3.15 pm - Staff will meet students at the PLC Sydney Main Reception area (Meta Street entrance) and direct students to the buses. 
5.15 pm - Students must make their own way to the Young Street bus zone. All students are to wait on the path near the Studio Theatre. Students are to use the pedestrian gate once the bus has arrived. A member of the staff will be at the bus zone to supervise the area. 

All bus services are PAYG (pay as you go) and a flat rate of $7.00 applies per trip.

Each student registered for bus travel are provided with a unique bus tag and lanyard which should be permanently attached to her school bag.  The tag is required to tap on and off the bus (similar to the Opal system). Bus tags cost $10.00 each (new and replacements).

Payment for bus travel is only accepted through PayPay via the Rollcall account system (see Bookings for further details). You will need to create a PayPal account if you do not already have one as no other forms of payment are accepted. We ask parents to make sure there is enough credit added to their accounts to cover your daughter's bus trips throughout the term.

The timetable and drop off/pick up points for each designated route are listed below.

If there is a public bus stop on the designated route closer to your home that you would like your daughter/s to be picked up/dropped off from, please email rprinci@plc.nsw.edu.au the name of your daughter/s, route number and the location of the bus stop and we will endeavour to fulfil your request.
