buses
Trinity offers six private bus services to and from school for the exclusive use of our students, including a service running between the Cotlew and Ashmore campuses for parents with students at both campuses.
We use the RollCall school bus management software that allows the college and parents to track students’ travel in real time with the use of senior student ID cards or junior bus cards.
If you would like your child to use the bus service, please complete the online Bus Registration Form by clicking the button below.
For general enquiries about the bus service, please email the College Bus Coordinator on buses@tlc.qld.edu.au, or telephone (07) 5556 8200 during business hours 8am – 4pm.
For urgent enquiries related to students who are currently on the bus, please call (07) 5556 8244 between 7am – 5pm.

canteens
The college canteens operate five days a week with age-appropriate menus following the guidelines set out by the Queensland Government’s Smart Choices Healthy Food and Drink Supply Strategy and designed to encourage healthy eating habits. Our day-to-day menus offer a wide selection of salads, wraps, sandwiches, fresh-cut fruit, yoghurts and sushi. In addition to these standard items, seasonal daily specials are available including hearty soups, curries and pasta dishes in the cooler months and a wider variety of salads, yoghurts and iced fruit-drink options in the warmer months.
Cotlew Street campus canteen (Prep to Year 5) is convened by one dedicated, enthusiastic staff member ably assisted by parent and grandparent volunteers. Lunch orders for this campus are via the MySchool Connect online order system and delivered direct to each classroom for distribution.
Ashmore Road canteen (Years 6 to 12) is convened by a qualified chef and a skilled assistant. All items are collected by students directly from the canteen. The Ashmore Road campus canteen operates 8.00 am until 1.30 pm each day. Students with special dietary requirements can be catered for by contacting the relevant campus canteen convenor.
