Buses
ONSLOW COLLEGE BUSES Terms 1 & 2 2018 (changes likely from July 2018)
In January, information re services will be available on www.metlink.org.nz/#timetables under the School Timetables dropdown tab.
These are the bus services currently scheduled to operate to and from Onslow College, information supplied by Go Wellington, and Newlands Coach Services. Buses run at these times Mon-Fri in term time only. Please note that bus services listed are contracted to the Greater Wellington Regional Council or the Ministry of Education. Onslow has only limited ability to request changes to routes/times. If school finishes early, Newlands Coach Services usually send buses earlier to match. Go Wellington does not send buses early, and students will need to either wait at school until the usual time, or make alternate arrangements. Students catching buses other than those listed are responsible for checking schedules for those services, as not all run to match school terms.
