A large number of students travel safely from their front door to the school building thanks to PostBus. They use PostBus school bus services to travel to school. Where there are no school buses, children can use the scheduled services available.

The secure and reliable bus service for students
Many students use PostBus school bus services to travel to school. Safety and reliability are the top priorities. The seats in the vehicles used exclusively for school bus services are fitted with safety belts.

For students and teachers
PostBus on a visit to your school
Children and young people can learn about using Postbuses and public transport correctly at an early stage. PostBus offers school visits by mediators. The mediator uses a toolbox with various documents for different age groups. All teaching units are available in German, French and Italian.
The individual teaching materials, available in German, French and Italian, can be obtained by teachers free of charge from Swiss Post learning media.
Documents
The 10 rules (PDF, 1.7 MB) from PostBus explain to children the correct behaviour on scheduled buses and school buses (PDF, 476.1 KB). The “My PostBus” (PDF, 3.8 MB) comic can be used as a teaching aid during lessons.
Travelling to school alone by Postbus for the first time: a very special experience, also for Theo and Mia, whose story is told in the book “Theo and Mia out and about”.
- Teachers can order the picture book free of charge from Swiss Post learning media.
A Postbus children’s song was also composed to complement the book (© Music and text: Linard Bardill/Drachäleon). Simply download the song sheet and playback version for your own interpretation during the music lesson.

The topic of travel fascinates young and old alike. For cycle 1, there is now a poster with Postbus journeys in a diverse landscape. With ten stations in a landscape, it familiarizes children with many facts about Swiss Post and also lets them immerse themselves in various topics: from the circus and zoo to the parcel center, the glacier and the mountain pass.
Teachers can download the poster as a PDF.
The puzzle invites you to take a closer look after completion. The children discover a Postbus with driver, a Swiss Post branch with a letter box and My Post 24, a mail carrier talking to a customer, a parcel carrier in a delivery van, a stamp collector and children and adults with letters and parcels.
Teachers can order a class set free of charge.
Mediators from PostBus aim to foster greater respect, a better atmosphere, less violence and damage, leading to as few accidents as possible.
The main work of mediators consists of school visits to classes of 5–16 year olds. They explain the job of a driver as well as correct behaviour in Postbuses and at bus stops. The service is aimed at students who travel with PostBus, and their schools.
