TRAVELLING FROM BRENTWOOD TO SOUTHEND GRAMMAR GIRLS

5 replies

monicahandoo · 27/06/2014 13:18

I am in Ilford right now, planning to move in Brentwood soon.DD got thru in southend grammar GIRLS school. Does anyone know any coach from Brentwood or Shenfield to Southend Girls school. I am aware there is coach from shenfield to Southend Boys but girls school is quite far from there.
I am not very keen to make her travel by Train, she will be 11 in Aug, so I feel still young to travel alone :(

Any one has any information about same?

Thanks

MH

I would ring the school and ask - it may well be that there are other girls from your area - and there might even be a school bus. I know there are dedicated buses in Southend itself - ds2 went to Southend Boys, and one of my best friend's dd went to Southend Girls - and I think she got a bus from near us to the school. I have a vague memory of some pupils bussing in from further afield - like Brentwood, so I think asking the school is a good place to start.

Iirc, it is not a long walk from the station, and there will be a constant stream of girls walking to and from the station at the start and end of school, so it may not be as scary as you think.

I am sure your dd will have a great time there - my friend's dd did, and got a wonderful education too.

Sadly we are now in Scotland, so I can't offer to meet up for a proper chat about the Southend schools, but I wish your dd the best of luck at SHSG.

I just tried to check with school, they dont have from either of the place, they have coaches from Chelmsford side though. No luck there.

Thanks for help SDT!

Just wanted to add that I used to commute into London on that line and there were always lots of children travelling in the opposite direction by train to the Southend Grammars.
Maybe have a practise run?
