Good morning on this wet miserable Monday!! We have had a heap of rain overnight and have sections of roads flooding. If you live in a flood prone area like Carruchan… exercise caution in sending your children to school as we will not be running them home if your individual circumstances change during the day. Thanks

Hi families of our Cardwell Kennedy students. We have just had a breakdown on Katherine’s bus. Neil is transferring the kids onto his safely and they will continue on their journey south. Please be patient as there may be up to 20 minute delay but we will ensure your kids get home safely. Thanks Ant

📣 Tuesday 27th January 📣

NO KENNEDY/CARRUCHAN HIGH SCHOOL FEEDER/KENNEDY PRIMARY (P1385)

Carruchan is cut off either side. If you are not in a flooded area please feel free to take you child to the Kennedy school at 7:44 or Kennedy shop at 7:46 to meet up with the Cardwell- Tully high school service.

Please note * if you do live in a flood prone area and think you may get cut off during the day WE WILL NOT BE RETURNING YOUR ONLY CHILD HOME *. Buses will only come home earlier if either 1- the schools close after principal decision or 2- the WHOLE bus run will be affected and after consultation with the school principal to send the students home earlier. Use common sense and keep your kids home if you think this affects you!!

Good evening families!!! I would like to say we are good to go for all of our runs tomorrow however there is flooding in the Carruchan area tonight so that service for high school/primary school will possibly be cancelled tomorrow. We make a post at 7am every morning during the wet season if localised flooding affects any of the services so I’ll be back at 7am tomorrow with an update!! If the Kennedy feeder is cancelled, you can still meet up with the Cardwell-Tully high bus at 7:44 at the Kennedy school or 7:46 at the Kennedy shop. Stay tuned…. (& dry!!) Ant
