You’ll have seen a new face at the wheel of the Pukekohe East School bus. Debbie Courtney is our new bus driver and has a wealth of experience driving buses, 16 years to be exact. Her family business specialises in motorhome upholstery and seating and Debbie owns a 9-metre motorhome, the same length as the school bus. Recently Debbie and her husband moved to a 10-acre property on Tuhimata Rd. Debbie’s grandson Ashton Cook is in Totara class.

We’re still on the lookout for another driver to job-share with Debbie.
