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. St Ives has a unique drawing area with some students travelling considerable distances. Many students travel by train and bus to SIHS, so it is unlikely that your child will be travelling alone.

Catching a bus

Morning buses transport students to Yarrabung Road from locations such as Gordon Station and Terrey Hills. The afternoon buses leave Horace Street and Yarrabung Road outside the school between 3:20 pm - 3:45 pm (Mon, Wed-Fri) and after 2:15 pm on Tuesdays.

Students are supervised until the arrival of their particular bus. The majority of buses, pick up and drop off students at Gordon Station.
