Qkr!
Dear Families,
Recently we had issues with Qkr! in relation to the canteen. Qkr! has confirmed that as their app which is used Australia wide between 8:00am - 9:00am it is being overloaded with users which is causing problems. They are in the process of increasing capacity. However, they have suggested that families order lunch orders the night before avoid having a stressful morning.Thank you
Mary - Canteen Manager
