Canteen

The Canteen is run by a P&C sub-committee. Our aim is to provide the students and staff with a range of nutritious lunch and snack choices. The daily business of the Canteen is handled by a paid Manager who is helped by friends and family of the School’s student body. OPENING HOURS The Canteen is open from Wednesday to Friday each week. Lunch orders are to be at the Canteen by 10.00am (a class monitor usually brings the orders). Lunches are ready for pick up at 12.35pm (Monitors normally take orders to the classroom). The Canteen is open between 11.00am and 11.15am for recess snacks. The Canteen is re-opened for lunch snacks between 12.50pm and 1.10pm.

HOW TO ORDER
Write the order on a PAPER BAG (please – no plastic bags). Include the child’s name, class, lunch items and price. Place money inside the bag (correct change if at all possible) and fold securely. Paper bags are available from the canteen for five cents.

HOW YOU CAN HELP THE CANTEEN RUN SMOOTHLY:

• Help out one morning a month (10.30am until 1.00pm). Your child loves to see you at school.
• Be on the stand-by list to replace regular helpers in case of illness.
• The Canteen Committee can always use another person. If you are concerned about what your child eats at school be part of the solution.

HELP KEEP THE PRICES DOWN!
Donate an item once a month. Things like vegemite, mayonnaise, bread, salad items, washing up detergent, dish cloths and aluminium foil can always be used.

Every time an item is donated, two things occur:

• We do not have to pass on the cost of the item and more of the canteen funds can be put back into the school.
  
• The profits from the Canteen go back into the school to purchase items to improve students’ education.
