Public Transport Victoria (PTV) operates School bus services which collect students from Grandview & Olivia Estate, Thornhill Park & Rockbank, transporting them to Yarrabing Secondary College in the suburb of Aintree.
From Term 1, 2026, PTV are adding extra bus trips to school special S2824 Thornhill Park to Yarrabing Secondary College and making small changes to the timetable.
The extra trips will give students more space on the bus and allow more students to use the services.
PTV are adding one extra trip in the morning and one extra trip in the afternoon on school days.
The extra trips will follow the existing route and use the same stops.
The new trips will run within three minutes of existing services, reducing wait times for students. The new trips will arrive 10-15 minutes before the morning bell and depart 10-15 minutes after the afternoon bell.
The existing timetable will have small changes to improve journey time accuracy.
Some school bus stops won’t have signs and may be located across the road from public bus stops that do. Students and parents should check route maps and timetables to confirm which side of the road to wait on.
From 1 January 2026: while your child is aged 17 and under, they can travel for free on public transport using a youth myki card.
Register for a Youth myki using a myki account.
For more details, visit the PTV website or phone the Public Transport Call Centre on 1800 800 007.
This bus service will be operated by Transit Systems, on behalf of PTV.
