St Michael's Bus Service

St Michael’s operates six bus routes traveling from the North, East, South and West of Melbourne, to and from the School every day. The buses travel from Williamstown, Port Melbourne, Keilor East, Glen Iris/Caulfield, Cheltenham/Brighton and Yarraville.

Our buses are available to all St Michael’s students, Prep to Year 12.

Ticket prices are $3.50 per child, one-way, for all routes.

Please see below for some expectations for students who will be using the Bus Service.

  • Students are not to travel if they display any symptoms of being unwell.
  • Students are to physically distance themselves if possible. For example, if the bus is half full, there will be one child to a seat.

For younger students who might be nervous about travelling on the bus for the first time, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your classroom teacher and we will endeavour to find bus buddies for them.

The 2023 timetables and route descriptions are available for download below.
