Students are reminded to tap on and off on all trips and be mindful of the Code of Conduct for school students and Safety on public transport.

Information for travelling independently

At Rose Bay Secondary College, we believe that every student is never too old to be safe.

Being an independent traveller means making safe decisions, and understanding your rights and responsibilities as a safe road user.

Discover practical tips and resources on being an independent road user:

• Walking to school safely
• Riding to school safely - including e-bikes
• Safe car travel to and from school
