Canteen
At St Patrick’s, we pride ourselves on being a member of the Healthy Kids Association and NSW Healthy Canteen Strategy. This means our menu options are approved as we encourage healthy eating. Foods have a colour rating. Our menu offers many green items, including lots of homemade and tasty meal options for our students.
Lunch is served at 11.00 am with afternoon tea at 1.40 pm (Tuesday - Friday). Options are available for both of these breaks on the menu.
Our canteen procedure is as follows:
- Order through Flexischools (instructions below) by the cutoff time of 8.30 am each morning (orders can be done ahead of time, for example, the night before).
- The order is prepared and placed in the class lunch baskets, ready for collection at 11.00 am.
- When ordering a frozen treat or jelly, an item card is put in the child’s lunch bag for them to bring to the canteen upon the teacher’s direction.
- Students with money to spend at the canteen for a treat are asked to follow those with a card.
We will never let a child go hungry, so if your child has forgotten their lunch or you have missed the cutoff time with Flexischools, please call us in the canteen, and we will gladly help.
