WestburyA little about Westbury
Westbury is a quaint, beautiful, classic Georgian Village. There is an argument that if the English village is some kind of high point of charm, then Westbury the most English of all villages in Australia, is certainly a place worthy of visiting and experiencing. It has everything a clichéd English village has, a village green, lots of tree-lined streets, old courtyards and stables, elegant old inns and many charming, historic houses. |
Students will need to have a Student Greencard to use next year if they travel on a fare paying non-Metro bus service. Have you received your Greencard ? What is the Student Greencard ? The Student Greencard gives students access to a discount fare on non-Metro buses and works like an ordinary Metro Greencard on Metro buses (Metro terms and conditions apply). Students who already have a Metro Greencard need not apply for another card as they can use the one they already have. What is the discount student fare ? From 1 January 2012 on non-Metro fare paying buses the standard student fare will be $ 1.30. The discount student fare will be $ 1.00. To get the discounted fare, a student MUST use the Student Greencard. If a student forgets their card they may be charged the standard student fare of $ 1.30. Who is eligible for the Student Greencard ? Any full-time student who: is less than 18 years of age or turning 18 during the school year AND travels on a fare charging non-Metro bus service to and from school. What does it cost ? The first Student Greencard is free, but if it is lost or is stolen there will be a fee for a replacement card. A Student Greencard will be valid until the end of the school year in which the student turns 18. How to apply for 2012 Fare Paying - If you already have a Metro Greencard you do not need to apply for a Student Greencard, you can use your existing card to access the discount fare on non-Metro services as well as using the card for Metro bus travel. If you pay a fare on a non-Metro bus you will need to apply for a card. The application form is available from http://www.transport.tas.gov.au/concession_information_and_forms then head to 'Student Greencard Guidelines and Applications', and at Service Tasmania Shops. If you will be travelling by Metro bus next year and do not have a Greencard you will need to apply to Metro for a Metro Greencard.
