Our Walking Bus

Our ‘Walking Bus’ service runs on a daily basis. Two members of staff meet children at the following pick up points:

Pick Up 1
Top of the underpass in Hoe Lane on the East side of the A10 at 8:15am and leave promptly at 8:20am.

Pick Up 2
At the corner of Hoe Lane and Pentrich Avenue, meeting at 8:25am and leaving promptly at 8:30am for school.

The Walking Bus operates whatever the weather, so children need a waterproof coat and suitable shoes (boots can be worn if the child has a pair of school shoes to change into). Children will be expected to be well behaved and follow the adult’s instructions at all times to ensure their safety.

The aim of this service is to provide an alternative to travelling by car and to help to alleviate the traffic congestion outside of the school.

Currently there are no spaces on the Walking Bus but a waiting list is in operation. Please contact the school office.
