Healthy Eating
Our not-for-profit canteen is run by the Parents and Citizens’ Association and is an integral service for Balgowlah Heights Public School.
As early adopters of the NSW Healthy School Canteen Strategy we have long had a commitment to providing our children with healthy choices to fuel their minds and bodies, so healthy eating becomes a habit. The vast majority of our food is made from scratch on-site.

Services
The canteen is located on the Western Campus of the school. The canteen is open at recess and lunch 5 days a week throughout the NSW school year, excepting sports carnivals and other pre-notified days.
All children can order recess and/or lunch via the online ordering system Spriggy Schools. Visit the website: www.spriggyschools.com.au to register and download the app. If you have any issues, you can contact Spriggy Schools via their website.
All lunch orders must be placed via the Spriggy Schools online ordering system. (Lunch is not sold over the counter).
All orders must be placed by 8.30am daily.
Volunteers
Our success in providing the children with home-made healthy food is reliant on volunteers. You do not need to have any cooking skills – there is always plenty to do, whether it be pouring yoghurt pops or serving at the counter at recess and lunch.
You will be a valued member of the school community as a volunteer, and you’ll have the pleasure of seeing your child(ren) as well as enjoying a free lunch.

We look forward to welcoming you in the canteen soon.
