The police said the driver was heading in a private bus to Couva, a short distance from Pranz Gardens, taking the students to schools in the California/Couva area.
Details are sketchy, but investigators believe the driver lost control and the bus veered off the wet road, flipped and landed upside down in an overgrown area.
Drivers stopped and helped the children out of the bus.
Officers from Mon Repos, Savonetta and Couva fire stations responded.
Couva police are investigating.
