Location map

We are located at Walder Rd, NSW 2170 Hammondville.

Use School Finder to confirm if you live in our local intake area.

Catching public transport

Public transport is a great way to safely get to and from school.

Catching a bus

Bus transport is available for students. The buses drop off and pick up our students on Walder Road. Students are expected to follow all school expectations when travelling to and from school.  Parents/carers are asked to ensure their children are responsible bus users.

Some students qualify for free bus passes depending on the distance from home to school. Parents of students who might catch the bus are encouraged to read about applying for a student Opal Card. Not all students will be eligible for a free pass.

Transit Systems is the bus operator for our area, and can be contacted here.

The bus numbers for Transit Systems that are available in our area are 901, 902, 902X and S520.

Catching a train

Our nearest train station is Holsworthy station. There are buses that leave from Holsworthy station and stop in our school bus bay.

Driving and parking

The start and end of the school day are busy times for pedestrians and drivers outside schools.

Please remember to 'Go 40' between 8 - 9.30am and 2.30 - 4pm on school days.

Here are a few valuable safety tips from Council's Road Safety Officer:

• Children are small and hard to see;
• Children can have a short attention span, poor peripheral vision and are easily distracted;
• Always drive at 40km/hr during school zone times;
• Driving at a lower speed means you have more time to react;
• Obey parking signs;
• Always set a good example when crossing the road. Children under the age of 10 should always hold the hand of an adult when crossing the road.
• Always cross the road at the marked crossings or designated safe place to cross. Never call your child across the road.

School and Child Safety

There are over 70 schools in the Liverpool local government area. Council shares the community's concerns about the safety of children near the road and is always working towards enhancing safety around schools.

All schools in the Liverpool local government area have designated School Zones. These are lengths of road that have a 40km per hour speed limit for school drop offs and pick ups.

Most of these school zones are active between 8am and 9:30am in the morning and between 2:30pm and 4pm in the afternoons. School Zones are only active on school days.

The beginning of a School Zone can be identified by a 'Start School Zone 40' sign.

The School Zone is finished when you see the 'End School Zone' sign.

These school zones are there to enhance the safety of all children in and around the vicinity of schools.

During all school terms, Council conducts a campaign to educate parents about parking restrictions around schools. All schools in the area are provided with educational resources to include in school newsletters. Council's parking rangers and Police from the Liverpool and Green Valley areas  actively enforce legal parking around schools.
