A number of buses service St Michael’s School.
Bus companies do not advise the school about student travel arrangements, this is the responsibility of parents.
Parents are to ring the bus company directly to arrange transport to and from school, and then contact the school with details of which bus and the number plate of the bus their child will be catching. These details are then added to our bus list.
