Canteen News

Mrs Rachel Simkin

 We encourage all parents to place canteen orders early in the week as opposed to Friday morning as there can be a lag in the payment system.  If you find you do not need the order, you do have until 8:30am on Friday morning to cancel it.

The Winter Canteen Menu will be available for Term 2 & 3

  • Warm Milo's will be returning at Morning Tea.  Quelch Icy Poles, & Fruit Salad will not be available again until Term 4
  • Spaghetti Bolognese, Beef Lasagna and Macaroni & Cheese will be available as a warm option at lunch.

VOLUNTEERS

 

If you have time on a Friday we would like to welcome our parents/guardians/caregivers into the canteen space. Our canteen operates every Friday and has a variety of options for our students and staff to choose from. We welcome you to volunteer to assist with preparation and delivery of Morning Tea and Lunches from 10am through until 1.15pm. 

 

You will need a volunteer working with children check, if you are not sure how to do this get into contact with us. Assistance would include labeling bags and drinks, allocating items to baskets, serving the Quelch's and Frozen Yoghurt's at the serving window and food preparation for morning tea and lunches. 

 

If you can only spare 1 or 2 hours of your Friday we understand everyone gets very busy and every minute will help.

 

Please contact Mrs. Simkin to let her know your availability for Canteen this Term.

 

At St Joseph’s Primary our canteen is passionate about providing children with filling nutritious, affordable options.
