TRANSPORT: I want my child to take the bus after the activity

13) Can my child take a bus after their extracurricular activity?

Yes, pupils participating in an extracurricular activity can use the second departure at 16.10 as long as places are available and they are registered for transport.

However, please note that the second departure is dedicated to secondary students and that the stops served are not necessarily the same as those of the first departure (15.20).

It is therefore possible that your stop will not be served. If this is the case, the Transport Department will contact you to inform you about alternative stops.

14) Is there a bus on Wednesday afternoons?

The transport service does not provide a bus service on Wednesday afternoons. That’s why the extracurricular service proposes two shuttles from the school at 3.50 pm to the central garderies and at 4.30 pm to Merode for pupils participating in extracurricular activities.

These shuttles will only be launched if a minimum of 12 pupils are registered.

THE ACTIVITIES

The school’s teachers bring their pupils to the meeting points located in the common room for nursery pupils and under the canteen’s courtyard for primary pupils.

The children go next to the sign that corresponds to their activity and meet their extracurricular monitors there.

16) How long does an activity last?

The activity lasts approximately 50 minutes.

The extracurricular service starts at the meeting point until the children are taken to the bus, the childcare centre or to their parents at the school gate.

17) In what languages are the activities taught?

The monitors adapt to their group, the activities are generally taught in French and English.
