Catching public transport

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

Catching a train

The nearest train stations to Enfield Public School are Burwood Station and Strathfield Station, both located about 2 kilometres away. From either station, families can take a short bus ride or enjoy a 20–25 minute walk through nearby residential streets.

Catching a bus

Several bus routes stop close to the school, including along Liverpool Road and Coronation Parade.

• Route 464 travels between Burwood and Mortlake, stopping at key points such as Liverpool Road at Beaumaris Street and along Coronation Parade.
• Routes 450, 480 and 483 also operate from Strathfield Station, providing regular services through the Enfield area.

Families are encouraged to check current timetables and plan their journey using the Transport for NSW Trip Planner to ensure the most convenient travel option.

Driving and parking

The start and end of the school day are busy times for pedestrians and drivers outside schools.

When driving and parking near our school, please:

• ensure you park safely in school zones
• follow speed signs including observing the 40 km/h zone and 25 km/h at or near crossings during school hours
• do not make U-turns or 3-point turns outside the school
• do not park across driveways or in 'No Stopping' areas

Local police and council officers regularly patrol the streets surrounding the school.

Bus Zone

The school has a designated bus zone from 8:00–9:30 am and 2:30–4:00 pm, which must be kept clear at all times for legal and safety reasons. No stopping signs mean that vehicles are not permitted to stop in this area under any circumstances — not even to pick up or drop off passengers.

Kiss & Ride Zone

Enfield Public School has a designated Kiss & Ride Zone, which operates under the same regulations as No Parking areas. You may stop to pick up or drop off passengers but must not remain in the zone for longer than two minutes (or five minutes if your vehicle displays a disability permit). As a courtesy to others, please move to the front of the zone to allow additional cars to use the area. When picking up or dropping off students, ensure they enter or exit on the passenger side to avoid stepping into the traffic lane.

Double parking is strictly prohibited at all times, as is parking in a way that blocks access to private driveways. Performing U-turns or three-point turns near the school is both illegal and dangerous.

Parking on school grounds

The school car park, accessed from Beaumaris Street, is reserved for school staff only and cannot be used as a drop-off or pick-up point due to limited space. A designated parking space within this area is available for vehicles displaying a disability permit, with permission to use it granted by prior arrangement with the principal. Families can find parking along Beaumaris Street and neighbouring streets.

Cycling and walking

Access to Enfield Public School is available from Beaumaris Street at the front of the school and Cobden Street at the rear.

To keep our young pedestrians safe, please always hold your child’s hand when crossing the road, especially for children under 8 years of age, and ensure all pedestrians use the designated crossings when stepping off the kerb.

The school provides a bicycle rack for students who ride to school. All students must wear an approved helmet when riding and walk their bikes or scooters once inside the school grounds.
