The NSW Government is thinking of revoking free school transport. If you take the bus or train to school, you'll have to pay $400 a year. and on top of that, they'll revoke the $50 return to school allowance. MAKE THEM CHANGE THEIR MIND! PLEASE don't be anonymous, it gives us more power over the government if you say your name.
I have spent this week reading through the concerns you shared regarding the proposed removal of the transport allowance. Your stories highlight how significant this financial change would be for families across our region. This feedback is essential as I prepare to present our collective position to the department.

Reaching this level of support confirms that our community values accessible education for every family. The growing momentum shows that decision makers cannot ignore our collective call to protect these essential travel provisions.

Disgraceful. My kids take the train every single day and this is just another way for the gov to squeeze more money out of us.

Are they serious?? $400 is way too much for a family to just pull out of thin air. We are already struggling with the cost of living.
