Public Transport
Our central location, and being situated adjacent to Croydon railway station, means we are well served by public transport:
Buses - Transport NSW provides a morning and afternoon public bus service for students with limited stops within the Inner West. View PLC Sydney's timetable here. Other Transport NSW buses may assist you with regular transport options operating close to your home and the College. View Transport NSW’s bus timetables here
Trains - Croydon railway station is adjacent to the College and only two stops from Strathfield railway station - a major interchange for travellers from all over Sydney. Students travelling from southern areas travel to Redfern and change trains for Croydon, while those travelling from the northern and eastern suburbs change at Town Hall.

The School Opal Card
The School Opal Card
The School Opal card replaces the old paper School Student Transport Scheme (SSTS) travel passes for travel in the Transport NSW Opal network.
The School Opal card gives eligible school students free or subsidised travel on public transport between home and school on trains, buses and ferries.
School Opal card holders and new applicants can apply online to travel on light rail services as well. If approved, students can catch light rail services to and from school at the beginning of Term 3.
To apply online or find out more, please visit the NSW Government's Opal website here.
