As an experienced school transport provider, Tranzit leads school bus operations around the North Island in both rural and urban areas. These are either Ministry of Education contracts, SESTA (Specialised School Transport Assistant for children with mobility needs) or direct contracts with the schools.
Other road safety reminders include:
When driving past a stationary school bus the speed limit is 20kmph either direction
When driving through a school zone, the speed limit is 40kmph;
When driving behind a school bus please note they must come to a complete stop at an uncontrolled railway crossing – so be prepared to stop too;
All school buses carrying passengers must slow down and be prepared to stop at a controlled railway crossing, so please watch your travelling distance and be prepared to stop too;
Passengers will load and unload from the front door of a bus, so please pass with caution at the correct speed of 20kmph.

I noticed that I couldn't help but feel apologetic to my coaching group about choosing to be powerful. Whaaaat? Oh, and in case you've not yet experienced a coaching group, they're a bunch of people who have the best intention for you so to be apologising to a group who support you, see you and hear you, is crazy.
So this sparked my journey of conversations with my coaching buddies: research, reflection, self-healing; research, reflection, self-healing (you get the
idea).
Here's what I've noticed:
• Power is infinite. There isn't a limited source. You don't have to take or diminish somebody else's power in order to be powerful.
• Being powerful is our natural state - if you're not sure, ask your mum if you were powerful as a babe.
• Many of us have learnt to fear our power. I give you permission to be powerful knowing you have the grace and wisdom to express it with love.
When talking with my good friend, wealth and money mindset coach, Louise Cartwright-Orr, we decided the message needed to be shared. Louise and I feel so
strongly about encouraging women to be powerful again that we decided to team up on a secret audio series. In this audio series we will be focusing on three key
areas: what it means to be powerful, giving yourself permission to be powerful, and power and connection.
The audio series is free and will be released on 27 May. Let us know you’re interested by registering at tracytutty.kartra.com... and we'll email you a link as soon as it’s released. It's our gift to you.
In the meantime, I'm talking about being powerful on instagram @tracytuttyherbalist
