We work closely with our partner, F-Irmãos, to ensure students’ safe transportation to and from St. Julian’s, mostly door to door. We strictly adhere to Portuguese authority guidelines.

Please note, transportation zones will only be serviced if enough students subscribe. St. Julian’s School and F-Irmãos will make every effort to accommodate requests from addresses outside the designated zone map. If transportation is requested from an area not currently covered, we will do our best to identify a nearby meeting point along an existing bus route.
