'Putting our children's education at risk' - parents angry at school bus changes

Casey Adams2026-07-20T06:05:09.000Z

What a load of shit. So now we're charging kids to go to school? Next they'll be charging for air.

Blake Turner2026-07-20T06:20:09.000Z

Yeah look, I get the frustration but the bus company can't run for free. Fuel ain't cheap

like someone who's never had to budget for a family. It's about priorities

Casey Adams2026-07-20T07:09:09.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed, the budget should be for the kids not some CEO's boat

Sophie Ngata2026-07-20T06:32:09.000Z

It's just wrong. These kids are our future and we're putting barriers in their way. Angry doesn't cover it

Rowan Blake2026-07-20T07:22:09.000Z

big facts. We're already cutting back on everything

Wait till they tax the oxygen mate 😂 But seriously, how are families meant to cope with another cost?

Casey Adams2026-07-20T07:05:09.000Z

bet the council fatcats still get their bonuses though. Disgusting

Blake Turner2026-07-20T07:42:09.000Z

harder mate, the money's gotta come from somewhere

Blake Turner2026-07-20T07:17:09.000Z

Honestly what's the point of 'free education' if you can't even get to school without paying. Make it make sense

Casey Adams2026-07-20T07:48:09.000Z

lol you'd think the council would at least subsidise it since they gutted the routes in the first place

Sophie Ngata2026-07-20T07:23:09.000Z

Someone needs to stand up to these bureaucrats. This is our kids' education at stake not their spreadsheet

Sophie Ngata2026-07-20T08:18:09.000Z

cope? Our kids can't get to school! Wake up
