Travel to school
Most of our students walk with friends or ride a bike to and from school. We love to see their growing independence and the responsibility that older siblings and friends develop. It also helps to contribute to incorporate incidental physical activity into the day and promote an active lifestyle.
There are a number of families who catch buses and in partnership with parents we can help prepare students to safely negotiate public transport.
Planning your school travel is easy. There are a range of safe transport options to get to our school. Check our location map, driving details and public transport options to help make the journey to school safe and easy.

Catching public transport
Public transport is a great way to safely get to and from school.
Catching a bus
There are a number of dedicated school bus services that stop directly at our school. These routes are 700, 705, 710 & 783. Students are able to disembark bus services in mornings and if needed, cross the road under the supervision of our crossing supervisor. In the afternoons, students are supervised on school grounds until the bus arrives and a teacher then walks them to alight the service.
