HIBS is also situated close to both Trentham and Heretaunga train stations. Many students from the above areas tend to use Tranz Rail as this service provides
flexibility with regard to time of travel. This fits in well with after school commitments. Students situated away from the train stations usually have access to the City Line Bus service which delivers the boys close to HIBS at the corner of Barton Avenue and Fergusson Drive.
Term Train Passes can be purchased from main train stations e.g. Upper Hutt, Waterloo and Wellington Stations.
