Buses arrive at 8:45am and depart at 3:00pm. Terms of Service • By booking a seat on the bus, parents acquire transportation to and from Victory College on all school days for their child(ren). Part bookings are not available. • The booking period begins on the first day of transportation in a school year and ends at the conclusion of the same year. • Bus fees for the booking period are billed at the commencement of the period by inclusion into school fee accounts. • Bookings can be cancelled with one term’s notice (e.g. notification at the end of term 1 for a cancellation at the end of term 2). Shorter notices will result in the full term being billed (e.g. notification mid-term 2 for a cancellation at the end of term 2 will result in term 3 being billed) • At the beginning of each booking period, preference of seat allocation is given to existing students rolling over into the subsequent booking period, and their siblings. • The College reserves the right to refuse access to its bus service and to administer appropriate disciplinary actions for students (including suspension from and cancellation of the bus service) at any time should the College deem this to be necessary. The Code of Conduct for Bus Travel applies. 2020 Fee Structure 3+ students: 1 student: $710.70 per year 2 students: $978.50 per year $1287.50 per year Bus Stops Tin Can Bay Bus Stops • “BALGREE” Wide Bay Hwy – Afternoon ONLY • Tin Can Bay Bust Stop (Wes Mitchell Park • Kilkivan Bus Stop (Hall St – Cnr of Wide Bay Cnr Esplanade and Gar St) Hwy at park rotunda) • Cooloola Cove Bus Stop (Nautilus Drive, • Lower Wonga Bus Stop (Able Rd – Cnr of Cooloola Cove Shopping Centre) Wide Bay Hwy) • Peterson Rd, Bells Bridge Widgee Bus Stops • Curra – (Puma Petrol Station) • Woolooga Bus Stop (Andrews Rd) • Chatsworth – Cnr Overlander Ave & • Lower Wonga Bus stop 2 (2927 Gympie- Rammutt Rd & Chatsworth School Woolooga Rd – “Hannavale Farm”, opposite (Afternoon ONLY) McGill’s Farm Gate) • Widgee Bus Stop (Widgee General Store) Imbil Bus Stops • Blunder Rd, Glastonbury • Belli Park (Cnr Skyring Creek Rd & Belli Creek • Southside Bus Stop (Gympie South State Rd) School, 50 Exhibition Rd Gympie) • Carters Ridge Bus Stop (Cnr Poulsen & Jubilee Rd) Glenwood Bus Stops • Imbil Bus Stop (Imbil-Brooloo Rd: Cnr of • Glenwood Bus Stop (Arborten Rd: Cnr of Yabba Rd in front of the Butchers) Bruce Hwy - opposite Petrol Station) • Woodhill Rd, Kandanga • Kanya Rd, Theebine • Kandanga – (Kann Park, Kandanga Creek • Dickabram Bridge (Miva) Rd) • Gunalda Bus Stop (Bus Shelter Balkin Rd) • Amamoor – Busby Rd • Cnr Brunjes & Steys Rd, Harvey Siding • Amamoor Bus Stop (Wesleyan Church Amamoor - Dagan Rd - behind) Cooroy Bus Stops • Dagun State School • Cooroy Bus Stop (Cnr of Elm & Opal St’s - near BP Service Station) Rainbow Beach Bus Stops • Pomona Bus Stop (Factory St).
