Food Safety Visit

This week, we were audited by the NSW Government Food Regulation Partnership. This visit was to ensure we were compliant with our food safety in the canteen.

Thank you to all our volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure our food safety guidelines are adhered to.

The inspector would like us, to ensure we record every time we clean and sanitise the canteen (this should be done after every canteen shift).

Please ensure you fill out the cleaning checklist after every shift

Please keep your receipts

Please remember to keep receipts for any purchases made for the canteen.

There is a pink box in the canteen for receipts.

Please place receipts from IGA, Foodworks or Cross Bros. Butchery in here please.

Compass Canteen

Families are able to order and pay for their children's lunch orders online through the Compass App.

If you have any trouble using the Canteen feature in Compass please feel free to read the guide below or send Karen an email on krizzi1@arm.catholic.edu.au

A few things to remember:

Cut off time for online ordering is 9:30am on the day of canteen. This allows plenty of time for the administration side of things to be completed before our volunteers arrive.

Ordering online is optional but preferred as it limits cash handling. If you still wish to place an order on a brown paper bag, please try and enclose correct money as change is limited due to majority of students using the online ordering option.

Baskets will be placed outside the canteen for teachers to distribute to the students.

Please be assured that frequent hand washing, wearing of gloves and regular safe food handling practices will be adhered to at all times.

Price Increase - Effective Monday 28th April 2025

Please note price increases on our menu. This will be effective on the 1st day of term 2.
