TRANSPORT

Buses

 

 

Cars

 

  • As part of ESF Island Schools commitment to sustainability and our ongoing effort to reduce the local impact of our operations, we have implemented a mandatory no private-car use policy,
    This means that no private cars are allowed to be used for drop-off or pick-up of students.

 

Public transport and walking 

 

  • The number 9 mini bus from Exchange Square runs every 10-20mins to Borrett Road. There are long lines during peak times.
  • If walking to Borrett Road the only access on foot is via the Bowen Road staircase, as there are no pavements on the lower parts of Borrett Road. There are walkways down to Kennedy Road from Bowen Road. If you are considering walking to school the PTA pro tip is to practice the route before term starts.

ESF APP

The ESF App is an extremely useful communication tool and is used for a number of things including sending messages.

 

ESF Parent App introduction video

 

The User guide explains how to download, register and use the App.

For new family joining the school the App will be available after the 4th August following the data transfer.

 

*Please note that Island School will be transitioning to Toddle and Sentral in August 2025. These new systems will replace ISLE, Gateway, and other platforms we currently use. The ESF Centre will provide further updates to introduce the new platforms to parents. Thank you for your patience during this transition.
