Canteen

LCPS has had a long tradition of a P&C operated canteen offering affordable food options five days a week to students and staff. Our new state of the art canteen down in canteen cove/astro turf offers students over-the-counter service for recess and lunch, as well as online lunch MunchMonitor orders that are delivered to student’s classrooms.

The canteen is run by our manager Karen and two casual staff along with many amazing volunteers, having regular volunteers allows the canteen to keep prices low and affordable for families at LCPS.

Late lunch order: if you miss the 8:30am lunch order deadline please call the Canteen on 9427 1024.

Lost or forgotten lunches: the Canteen will provide a sandwich and piece of fruit if a student has forgotten or lost their lunch and comes to the Canteen with a note from their teacher authorising the Canteen to provide a replacement lunch. All replacement lunches must be paid for. The Canteen will either debit the student’s MunchMonitor account or send a note home stating the lunch provided and the amount owed to the Canteen.

Aims of the Canteen

LCPS Canteen aims to:

  • Provide a balanced and nutritious food service to students and staff at a reasonable cost;
  • Maintain standards of health care in preparation, supply and service of food at the Canteen
  • Provide a service to the school community
  • Support the school in its health education program
  • Support the P&C by passing on any surplus revenue to the P&C general funds
 

LCPS Canteen fully supports the NSW Government’s Fresh Tastes @ School programme which ensures all government schools offer a healthy canteen service.
In the Fresh Tastes @ School program all foods are given a rating based on the levels of salt, saturated fats and sugar they contain. 

These foods are then classified as follows:

 

Green = eat regularly as these are the healthiest foods (low in fat, sugar and salt)
Amber = eat sometimes
Red = eat rarely as they are too high in sugar, fats and/or salt

All foods prepared and sold at LCPS Canteen are checked to ensure that they fall into the Green or Amber categories.

While we take the best of care to support the school’s nut-free policy, some of the pre-packaged products for sale at the Canteen may contain traces of nuts.
 
For health reasons, food prepared at home cannot be reheated at the Canteen.
