For families who live in Vancouver, EFIV provides a supervised bus service with several pick-up/drop-off locations in the downtown core. This service is provided by First Student Canada, which is certified by the provincial government for school bus transportation services.
The school bus features eight special seats with seat belts for children under 5 years old.
You will find the bus transportation registration form here.
Duly completed forms and post-dated checks are due before the start of the school year to ensure your child can use the bus service as from the first day of school.
