 Here are some preparations for the "Healthy Lunch Week" in week 3

Growing "micro greens" for the sushi fillings

Keep it moist

Using different kinds of containers to compare

Term 3- Week 9 Beautiful salad & wash ups

Salad can be dressed up with few petals and leafy lettuces from our garden! Thanks to the artistic parent to create this on the plate:-). Silver beet and spinach from the garden also became yummy filo parcels which is getting popular among the students.

Term 3 - week 8 Washing up!

Hello, we've introduced a new system this week. Students can help us with rinsing their plate!! Some of them were hesitating to get their hands wet at first, and some were totally keen.  It worked really well:-).
It's nice to share the cleaning job as well as the meal.  Thanks everyone! The parent helps could go home much earlier than usual..!

Enjoying sushi with parent helps:-)

Frittata and Sushi

We can do it!

Term 3 - Winter is over (nearly) !!

Hello everyone, thanks you for all the support while the main canteen coordinator is away. The last four lunches went well and now it's time to order for the second half of this term. Please see the menu on the school website and bring the order slip to the office if you haven't ordered yet!

The last Friday we cooked "vegetable lasagna" and "beef and veggie stir fry on rice". We've served them before but not for a while. I guess people all remembered the yummy smell of the melting cheese and garlic&soy from the kitchen:-).

Thanks to Mrs. Diane again for the beautiful supply of broccoli from the school garden. It went into the both menus. (The picture was accidentally deleted unfortunately..!)

Term 2- Week 8 The last canteen of the term!

We've made nearly 700 nutritious meals in term 2. The students have been encouraged to eat everything on their plate and it has been getting better every week. Thank you so much for your support. See you next term!

Term 3- week 5 "Baked potato & Pumpkin soup"

 a hard work- cutting pumpkins

 Baked potato was newly introduced this week. It is topped with beef mince, bean sauce and fresh sweet corn from our school garden.

Term 2 -week 4 "100 meals!"

What a busy week! We had over 100 orders this week. Pinwheel is always the most popular menu but Stir-fry was attracting so many children too.
Well done for the helpers!
