School buses

 
The school has established bus services from Bembridge and Cowes, operated by Southern Vectis.
 
Southern  Vectis vehicles are all fitted with seat belts and will be driven by the same individual drivers each day. Southern Vectis adhere to rigid safety standards which are explained in the general details. Please click here for further information about Southern Vectis.
 
Initially Southern Vectis bus stops will be used, but once participants are known, more convenient stops can be agreed.
 
Buses leave school at the following times at the end of the day:
4.05 pm on Wednesdays and Fridays
5,15 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays
 
This is to accommodate the days when most After School extra-curricular activities take place.
These times will continue to be reviewed,

Routes (please click on the following)
Bembridge / Ryde
Cowes / Ryde
 
Costs from September 2011
£3.25 for a daily return ticket from Bembridge (£2.50 from St Helens and £2.15 from Nettlestone)
£3.75 for a daily return ticket from Cowes 
 
This will be payable to the school termly in advance and will include: 
 
1.      The agreed travel journey to and from school.
2.      Travel on normal Southern Vectis routes if the school bus is missed.
3.      Travel on Southern Vectis at weekends and through the school holidays.
 
We believe this to be good value and would encourage you to participate in the scheme, not only because of the time and financial benefits you will accrue, but because it will help reduce car travel to and from the school site, which will no longer be open to vehicles from September 2011.
 
Please would you complete and return the application form (above) if you wish to make use of this service.
