Bus Transportation
To sign up please download our Aspengrove busing-commitment-form2
• Bus service is provided from Parksville (North Bus), Ladysmith (South Bus) in partnership with the Nanaimo Christian School (“NCS”) and Central Nanaimo (Central Bus).
• Buses run every school day and in case of bad weather listen to The Wave FM (102.3 FM in Nanaimo or 99.9 FM in Parksville) or check www.aspengroveschool.ca for school closures.
• The busses are mechanically serviced on a regular basis but occasionally mechanical break-downs are unavoidable. NCS has an arrangement with School District 68 to provide a back-up bus in case of emergency. However, that is subject to availability and if we do have a mechanical problem that interferes with before or after school bussing, parents will be notified by phone.
• All Students must abide by the Bus Rider Rules.
• The full Aspengrove Student code of conduct will be in effect during transportation time.
