WALKING SCHOOL BUS SERVICE FROM THREE KINGS SCHOOL TO THE FICKLING CENTRE
We are pleased to be able to offer a Walking School Bus (WSB) service to ensure that your children have a safe method of transportation for getting from school to their Taekwon-Do training session at the Fickling Centre. The centre is about 200 metres from Three Kings School on Mt Albert Road. To utilise this service you will need to give your child consent by agreeing to the consent form below and be aware of the following:
- We will need you to give your consent (below) to confirm the arrangement.
- You will need to call or text us in advance on the designated Walking School Bus number of any absences at least two hours in advance so that we know which children to expect each afternoon. Please save this contact number for your future reference: 027 479 3940 Please do not email or call any other number to report an absence other than the designated Walking School Bus number.
- You will need to be available by phone or mobile phone between 2.50-3.30pm on the days your child uses the WSB – if your child is absent and we haven’t heard from you we will call you on an emergency number supplied by you for you to follow up their whereabouts.
- A trained Warrior Taekwon-Do staff member will arrive at Three Kings School at 3pm – please ensure your child knows to come straight to the meeting point after school. The meeting point is under the tree (outside staffroom) or when it raining under the cover on the courts. They must be there before 3.10pm at which time the WSB will depart.
- You will need to arrange to have your child picked up from the Fickling Centre at 4.30 pm each Tuesday. The only exception to this is children who need to go to after school care at the school. These kids will be walked back to the school by the instructor.
- Any staff member on duty for the WSB will be recognisable as being from the Warrior Taekwon-Do by their Taekwon-Do dobok (uniform) or WTKD apparel and fluoro vest – while we have a regular staff member roster for Three Kings and WSB, on the rare occasions when a staff member is sick or away your children will be able to recognise that a person is safe to walk to Taekwon-Do with by checking that they are either wearing a uniform or WTKD apparel and a fluoro vest. This staff member will also have access to WSB booking on hand.
- Only those children whose consent forms have been received will be formally enrolled on the WSB service. We are unable to provide this service to any children not formally enrolled.
