Ritchies New Zealand has been getting school children safely to schools around the country since the 1930’s. We are New Zealand's most trusted school bus service provider, operating nationwide, from Kaitaia in the North to Balclutha in the South.
We even provide school bus services in the remote Chatham Islands.
Throughout New Zealand Ritchies work closely with schools and the Ministry of Education to establish the best routes and pick-up points to ensure all students arrive at school, safe, on time and ready to learn.
Any queries that a parent may have regarding student eligibility, bus stops and routes should be directed to the School Bus Controller or Principal of the School.
Please also note that the final decision on bus routes is determined by the Ministry of Education.
