Did you know that all schools in the Loddon Campaspe Mallee region can apply for FREE bus transport as part of the Student Access Fund?
Funding is limited, but if you're quick you can lock-in free transport along with discounted, educational and fun activities for your students as the year comes to a close.
The only requirement is that you have to choose at least one cultural activity in order to qualify for the free transport. To help you choose, we have created a list of possible activities for your excursion:
