Ordering Online
Lunches can be ordered online via the Qkr! phone app.
Forgotten Lunches
If a student has forgotten their lunch, an IOU can be issued after a teacher or office staff member has signed an IOU form. Your child is then given a buttered OR vegemite sandwich. The IOU slip is sent home to the parent/caregiver and payment should be made the next day.
General Information
The canteen opens each day 8.30 am and closes at 1.30 pm.
The canteen phone number is 8271 7580.
The canteen is managed by the canteen sub-committee which is responsible to Highgate Governing Council. The manager is employed and volunteer helpers are needed to serve and prepare lunches. Offers of assistance are much appreciated and if you are able to help, please notify the canteen or respond to volunteer help requests in the school newsletter.
The canteen provides a range of options in line with the Right Bite strategy and aims to provide a variety of food at reasonable cost.
Canteen orders can be placed through Qkr, or students may place a lunch order bag in the class canteen container first thing in the morning. Lunch order bags are available from the canteen at a minimal cost. Please do not use envelopes.
Current price lists are available on QkR, or can be downloaded here.
Each term, the canteen offers ‘specials’, including an Ice Cream Day and is open for parents to purchase barista made coffees during the morning drop-off period.
