At Gordon West Public School we pride ourselves on having a 'Healthy Canteen'. This means that we follow the guidelines of the NSW Healthy Canteen strategy. Fresh food is prepared on site. We have a Canteen Manager and operate with the help of four or five volunteers a day. Once a term we have 'Dad's Day' in the canteen.
The canteen is now open from Mondays to Friday for recess and lunch orders. Volunteers are usually finished by 2pm.
Online Ordering is Here!
Our school has now introduced a great new online ordering system for Canteen, Uniform, Events & Fundraising called FlexiSchools. This system allows parents, students and staff to place orders from home, work or school at any time. The payment is also done online, so less paper bags, cash, cheques, and envelopes are sent via your student to school. As well as being convenient for parents, the online orders are much faster and easier for the school coordinator to process - so it makes everyone's life a little easier. FlexiSchools is well established and tested, operating in hundreds of schools across Australia.
Getting online is easy and only takes a few minutes to register. Simply go to www.flexischools.com.au and click "Register Now". You will be sent an email with further instructions on how to complete the registration. Once registered, you can start placing orders immediately. If you have any questions, FlexiSchools provide a great help desk on 1300 361 769, or you can contact them via their website.
There are a variety of payment options supported, including Visa, Mastercard (credit and debit) and Bank Transfer. The system operates via a pre-paid account, so you no longer have to worry about the manual process of sending payments into school, and you can easily budget your students spending and expenses throughout the year.
The system is now available, so we look forward to seeing your next order online!
