Transport
Services
GCC offers its own dedicated private bus service for families in specific suburbs listed below in the bus timetables. There are also external bus companies who transport students directly to our College.
Students travel from all over the Sunshine Coast region to attend Glasshouse Christian College, including Caboolture, Morayfield, Wamuran, Woodford, Maleny, Nambour, Maroochydore, Buderim and Caloundra, to name a few. GCC is very accessible to these suburbs via the excellent bus and transport services on the Sunshine Coast.
