School Canteen
The MPS Canteen is open on Mondays and Fridays. It is managed by voluntary P&C members and assisted by parents, grandparents and school friends who give their time and effort generously.
The canteen follows closely the recommendations of the NSW Health Commission Healthy Schools and is operated by the P & C Association. The menu is healthy and meets government food & safety guidelines. A subcommittee of the P&C Association (the Canteen Committee) meets regularly to organise catering, rostering and special days. A Canteen supervisor is employed 2 days per week to manage the canteen (arrange ordering etc). Volunteers assist the Canteen Manager and all parents are encouraged to offer their services. All profits are returned to the P & C Association to provide additional school resources.
We are always needing volunteers (between 9am and 1pm, but even an hour is a great help) on Monday and Friday, so even if you can pop in once a term, you’re welcome! Come and say g’day and we’ll show you the ropes.
To order from the canteen, you can register with FlexiSchools, for easy and convenient ordering and payment. Visit www.flexischools.com.au or download the easy-to-use app. Students can also fill in a brown paper bag with their name, class and order on the front. They are to include the money securely inside. If they require a recess and lunch order, then they are to fill in two bags. Students are welcome to bring money to school to spend after eating time.
