Travelling To School

There are three school buses, organised by Lancashire County Council (LCC) and several service buses available to help pupils travel to and from Our Lady’s. The buses organised by LCC are primarily for pupils in receipt of free bus passes, however, places are usually available to pupils either by purchasing a school bus pass or paying on the day.
