School Opal Card

The School Opal card gives eligible students free travel between home and school on an approved train, bus or ferry service. Students will be required to ‘Tap On and Off’ when travelling to and from school. The data will be captured by this action to ensure the travel is eligible between home and school.

Please note: The School Opal Card will be deactivated for use on weekends and school holidays.

Should students need to travel to any other location, they will be required to use a Child/Youth Opal Card.

Most Temporary Residents (e.g. 457 visa) and International Students (500 visa) are not eligible for a School Opal card.

Applying for a School Opal Card for the first time?

You will only need a new application if:

  • you are applying for a School Opal card for the first time
  • you are enrolling in Kindergarten
  • you are requesting an additional pass as a result of a new shared parental responsibility (joint custody) situation.

A parent or legal guardian must make the application if the child is under 16 years of age. If the child is 16 years or older they will need to complete the application themselves.

After you submit your application, the school will endorse your application as soon as possible. You will be advised if you need to do anything further when you have completed your online application. Transport for NSW will then process the application. Once approved, the School Opal card will be sent to the home address you provided in the application.

There are certain requirements that must be met to apply for a School Opal Card. Find out if you are for a School Opal Card.

Changed address or other circumstances - updating your information

You will need to update your application if:

  • you have a current School Opal card and you change address
  • you change your school year outside of the usual progression (e.g. repeat a year or skip a grade).

If your child already has a School Opal card, be sure to hold on to it. The School Opal card will be updated.
