Getting To School

We operate coaches and minibuses covering towns and villages across a wide area around the College. These can be used by both Prep Department and Senior School pupils and can be booked on a termly basis or for an occasional trip. The bus routes are reviewed on an annual basis and adapted as necessary to suit the needs of pupils.
