No matter where you live in Auckland, we make it easy for your daughter to get to school each day. Both Saint Kentigern campuses are serviced by a large fleet of dedicated buses, operated on our behalf by Howick and Eastern Bus Company.

Every day, our students make use of an extensive Saint Kentigern bus network that covers a wide area of Auckland, from Britomart in the city, to as far south as Pukekohe, out west to Mt Albert and many, many routes in between. All the routes are well detailed with many pickup points, and subsidised fees are only charged per zone. This greatly reduces the need for parents to travel through rush hour traffic to collect their children at this busy time of day.

No matter where you live, we make it easy to get to school!
