Travel to School

Planning your journey to Tweed Heads Public School is simple and convenient. Our students choose from a variety of safe and reliable transport options, including walking, riding, private car, school buses, and Out of School Hours (OOSH) services.

To help you plan your trip, please refer to our detailed location map, driving directions, and public transport information. These resources are designed to make your school commute as safe and hassle-free as possible.

We also host regular fun and social events such as Walk to School and Ride to School days throughout the year, encouraging active travel and community engagement among our students and families.

Driving and parking directions

The start and end of the school day are busy times for both pedestrians and drivers around our school. To ensure everyone’s safety, please observe the following when driving and parking near our school:

• Always follow local parking and traffic regulations. Tweed Shire regularly enforces these rules, and fines for infringements can be significant.
• Adhere to all speed limits and signage in the school vicinity.
• Drive and park with caution and respect to prioritise the safety of our students and the school community.
• Use the supervised pedestrian crossing on Stuart Street when arriving at or leaving school. A crossing supervisor is on duty during morning and afternoon peak times to assist pedestrians safely across the street.

Parking on school grounds

Parking within school grounds is strictly reserved for staff members only. Parents and community members are kindly asked to use the nearby public car parks, which provide convenient access to the school.

Catching public transport

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