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.

Getting to and from school safely

As a parent or carer, it’s your responsibility to get your child to and from school safely. Student safety is our priority.

Keep our school community safe by:

• driving and parking safely, even if it means parking further away and walking the rest of the way to school

• being a good role model

• never calling your child from across the road

• using the safest place to cross the road.

• Help your child organise a school Opal card or bus pass if travelling by public transport. Go to  transport.nsw.gov.au/ssts  or phone 131 500.

• Help your child plan their public transport route to school, if needed. Use the trip planner at transportnsw.info/trip.

• Plan and practise walking routes with your child. Discuss with your child what they will do before and after school, and when they need to be home.

• Talk about what to do when they’re running late, miss the bus or train, lose their travel pass, feel unsafe travelling to and from school, or it's wet weather.

• Discuss the dangers of being distracted when crossing the road or riding a bike – including talking on the phone, texting or using headphones.

E-Bikes and Petrol Powered Bikes

Bicycles that meet the requirements for permitted e-bikes can be used on public roads and road-related areas. Petrol-powered bicycles and other powered bicycles that do not meet the e-bike requirements outlined below are illegal and may only be used on private property (the school is Government property). There are two types of permitted e-bikes:

• Power-assisted pedal cycles
• Electrically power-assisted cycles.

These must be designed to be propelled primarily by the rider – they cannot be propelled exclusively by the motor. The motor is intended to help the rider, such as when going uphill or riding into a headwind.

E-Scooters

E-Scooters are not permitted to be ridden under any circumstances. The NSW Government is currently running a trial of E-Scooters in selected areas.

Students are not permitted to bring bicycles and scooters to school that do not meet the above requirements.

Please discuss these laws, regulations and safety issues with your child, including the wearing of helmets.

The NSW Department of Education also has advice for parents and students about travelling safely to and from school on bikes. Resources to ensure the safety of all students.
