The Pukekohe East School Bus Society Annual General Meeting (AGM) is being held on Monday February 11th, 2019. 7pm start in the school office. All parents of students who use the bus welcome to attend.
The Bus Society is having a special meeting tonight at 7pm at the School office. We will be getting an update on the bus driver for next year, setting dates for upcoming meetings and much more. Please attend if you can make it.
We are currently reviewing the bus route for 2019. If you want to make any changes to the route (e.g. you are new to the bus, or you want to change your drop-off point), please contact Hayden Tapper on 027 837 5814. The current bus route is available for viewing here.
The Pukekohe Bus Society urges all members to come to the meeting tomorrow night, 7pm at the school office. The Bus Society needs to find a new bus driver to start next year, or the service will need to be cancelled. We require your support in finding a driver, so please come along to the meeting.
If you are unable to attend, but know of any candidates for driver, please contact our Chairman Niko Kloeten on 0273399681 or email niko.kloeten@bayleys.co.nz.
The Pukekohe East School bus is looking for a new full-time driver to start next year. Bus Society Chairman Niko Kloeten says that bus driving experience and a current Passenger Endorsement Licence is preferred, but the Society is willing to pay for training for the right candidate.
“This is not an ordinary bus driving job. It’s about more than going round the bus route twice a day; you become a part of the school and the wider Pukekohe East community,” he says.
“It takes skill and patience to drive some of these rural roads, but the kids will put a smile on your face.”
The role is for school terms only and that there are additional school trips during the day. Extra charters are available on evenings and weekends if wanted.
Current driver Wallace Bremner, who is stepping down at the end of the year to pursue other interests, says the job is challenging and hugely rewarding.
For more information or to apply for the role, contact Niko Kloeten on 027 339 9681 or email niko.kloeten@bayleys.co.nz.
