School bus leaves young children stranded, 'kilometres' from home

Melanie Earley Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, children as young as 5 were left to find their own way home after they were made to get off their school bus onto a busy road with no footpath.

The children were heading home from Oratia District School on Monday when the bus they were on was unable to drive onto Piha Rd due to another bus breaking down and blocking the road.

A text message that was sent to parents over an hour after school finished for the day said due to the road blockage, all the children had been “offloaded” from the bus at the top of Te Ahuahu Rd.
