Travel to school

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.

Location map

We are located at 47-53 Hoddle Street, NSW 2577 ROBERTSON.

Use School Finder to confirm if you live in our local intake area.

Bus travel

Our local school bus service is Robertson Bus Service. It is run by Grant and Marianne Pointing.

This service can be used by students and the public.

When your child is starting school and wishes to catch the bus, it is advisable to contact the bus operator, to let them know of the new student and any other information you may need.

We have designated routes , which can only be changed with the approval of Transport for NSW, who we have to abide by their rules.

For school children, the following applies:

• Kindergarten, Years 1 and 2 get free travel, no matter where they live.
• Years 3 to 6 have to live further than 2.3 walking distance from the school, before they can get free travel.
• However, some may get approval due to a safety issue (having to cross a railway with no crossing). This has to be applied for through the Transport for NSW website.
• If years 3 to 6 wish to catch the bus, they may do so, but will have to pay 50c per day.

Subsidised school travel

Transport for NSW  provides subsidies to assist school students.

• The  School Student Transport Scheme  provides eligible students with free or subsidised travel on public transport between home and school.
• The  School Drive Subsidy  may help towards the costs of driving children to school if you live in an area where there is no public transport.
