We have decided in collaboration with a local bus company, to offer a bus service from several surrounding areas of the Academy, including Church. Oswaldtwistle, Fern Gore, Huncoat and Clayton- Le-Moors. The bus will be provided to Hyndburn Academy students only and will be available to and from school. Unlike other bus services, we can confirm seat belts will be provided on the bus. Although unlikely, any unforeseen cancellations or delays of the school bus service due to adverse weather, traffic or breakdown we will advise you via the school website and text message as soon as we have been notified by the bus company. These are the proposed pick up points: Route A Route B Stop 1 Burnley Road Bowling Green Stop 1 Bottom of New Lane Oswaldtwistle Stop 2 Top of Burnley Road, Huncoat Stop 2 Stone Bridge Lane, Oswaldtwistle Stop 3 Highergate/Lowergate Rd area Stop 3 Feilding Lane, Oswaldtwistle Huncoat Stop 4 Bottom of Bolton Avenue Stop 4 Fern Gore Ave/ Willows Lane Stop 5 Spar Whalley Road, Clayton Stop 5 Ormerod Street Stop 6 Devonshire Drive, Clayton Stop 6 Brown St/Willows Lane area Stop 7 Hare and Hounds, Clayton Stop 7 Acorn Centre, Blackburn Rd Stop 8 Henry St, Church The approximate cost, subject to confirmation would be £2.50-£3.00 for a day return, and £1.50-£2.00 for a single journey. As soon as the cost is confirmed by the bus company, we will communicate this with parents/carers who have applied for the service. The academy wants to ensure this is an opportunity for the students in these areas to obtain a direct route to The Hyndburn Academy, as well as ensuring that this service is best value. The Hyndburn Academy is committed to contributing to the cost of these bus services to assure parents/carers that the costs will not exceed the figures provided in this letter.
