Dear Parent
TRANSPORT OF LEARNERS
The safety of our learners to and from sport and
cultural meetings, is a high priority.
The above-mentioned implies, that certain rules
and regulations must be in place, should learners be transported:
 |
If
learners are transported by school bus the driver must have both a PDP licence
and a normal car licence. |
 |
Parents may not transport learners at the back of a bakkie (with or without a
canopy) or on any motor bike. |
 |
The
number of children to be transported, will depend on the capacity registered
for that particular vehicle. |
 |
Only
parents who are in possession of a valid licence may transport learners. |
 |
Parents may make arrangements to transport their friend’s children. |
 |
You
must ensure that your child is transported in a roadworthy vehicle. |
 |
You
must ensure that your vehicle has comprehensive insurance. |
 |
If
the school has given you a mandate to transport learners, the learners are
covered by contingency liability. |
