Beginning in Week 1 Term 1 2024, Ferny Grove State High School have introduced “Intentional Collaboration Time” for teachers every Thursday afternoon, allowing students to leave school at 1.15pm.
All students who cannot make their way home after lunch, will stay at school and engage in independent study where they will be supervised by staff. Once the bell goes at 3.05pm, students can head home on buses using our normal services.
The school’s FAQ on this subject can be found here.
Brisbane Bus Lines was consulted prior to this change and we confirmed then that we are not able to provide additional early school bus transport for students at 1.15pm. Brisbane Bus Lines will continue to provide our regular 3.30pm services on Thursdays.
We operate a complex network of over 40 school buses, servicing over 40 schools. With numerous dependent connections between our buses, we simply don’t have the ability to accommodate changes to individual school bell times.
Kind regards
School Services
