CDC NSW - Opal Card Procedures
At the start of each trip, tap on by placing your Opal card on an Opal card reader. AT the end of the trip you tap off by placing your Opal card on an Opal card reader again. Although it is a free pass, students are still required to tap on and tap off.
The School Opal Card gives eligible school students free or subsidised travel on public transport between home and school on trains, buses, ferries and light rail in the Opal Network.
It's important that the School Opal Card is only for travel to and from school on school days and doesn't cover travel to After School Care, School Excursions, Sport and other activities away from school.
Don't throw out this years School Opal Card because eligible cards will be automatically updated for the new School year.
If you require any further information or have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact our office on 4751 1077.
Yours Faithfully,
Jodie Mallia
Service Delivery Manager
