Canteen thank you

We would like to thank Mrs Rachel Simkin for the wonderful work she has done in our canteen; setting up Compass, developing the summer and winter menus and the morning tea options as well as the hours of researching the appropriate healthy foods to offer to our students inline with the National School Healthy Canteen Strategy. Rachel is now on leave and we welcome Michelle Cortis as our Canteen Supervisor until Rachel returns from Maternity leave part way through next year. Rachel, we wish you all the best as you and your family welcome your precious baby a little later in the year.

Compass Top Tips

If you receive an SMS through Compass you can't reply to it successfully.  It is a no reply system. You will think you can reply but it will not actually send.

When you order uniform items through Compass, please  email quiadmin@arm.catholic.edu.au to let us know, as Compass does not send a notification and orders can be easily missed.
