We urge Mayor to provide safer and bigger school buses in Mogale Junction
[Update: 14 May 2026] We have delivered the petition to the Mayor and asked that he respond within seven days. We will keep you updated.
I'm a parent concerned about school transportation in our area, Mogale Junction in Krugersdorp. Our kids need the bus, the one that they currently use arrives late, and it's often full. A full bus is a hazard, and having our children arrive late at school is also a violation of their right to education.
We demand that:
1. The Municipality should replace the current buses and provide safer ones
2. Ensure that the buses are big enough to carry all the learners without the buses being overcrowded.
3. Plan out a bus schedule that will ensure that our kids are safe.
Why is this important?
When our kids go to school, we are always worried about their safety because the buses get so full that some learners don't even get a seat, so they have to stand the entire ride to school.
Our schoolchildren are made to feel uncomfortable every time they travel to school because the bus is not big enough to accommodate all of them. And because the bus has to pick up schoolchildren from different parts of the area, it often arrives at school late.
We need urgent intervention. Our children deserve to travel to school comfortably and safely. They need safer, bigger buses that arrive on time. As a community, we have to come together to fight for our children. Please sign this petition to ask the Mayor to provide safe school buses for our children. If enough of us sign, the Mayor will realise how serious we are about this issue. We elected him as Mayor so he can keep our community, especially our children safe, and these school buses are doing the opposite of that.
