Canteen Menus - Term 3

ALLERGIES: Please note that we are not a nut-free school and the canteen often uses nuts in their dishes. In addition, while gluten free options are sometimes provided, the canteen make doughs in the kitchen area therefore flour is often in the air and therefore no item can be deemed 100% gluten free.

Info - Consent for Events

Any event (excursion or sports day) that a student is involved in requires online parental consent through Compass.

There are a number of sports days approaching and all students involved need consent for them to be able to leave the school grounds and attend the day.

Email reminders are sent to all parents of those students involved and your assistance with providing consent is greatly appreciated.

It is your child that misses out if consent is not received.

Young Carers

A Young Carers program facilitated by Little Dreamers is meeting at lunchtime today in N205. If you identify as a person caring for a parent or sibling with a chronic illness, mental illness, disability or drug/alcohol addiction come along and see how you can be supported during this time.

Little Dreamers is a non-for-profit organisation founded by BSC alumni Maddie Buchner; Little Dreamers aims to create a community where every Young Carer feels supported, valued and empowered through short term and long term programs.
