College Canteen Updated Service

The College’s Canteen partner Chartwells has developed updated menus for online ordering for Junior School and Senior School students for Term 3. Senior School students must now order a main meal when ordering online, so if you are only after a snack or drink, simply walk in during recess or lunch to purchase. A new initiative for Term 3, the Canteen is now offering breakfast from 8.00am with a new Café menu available and we invite students and staff to give it a try!
