Please pack a healthy snack such as fruit, cheese, savory biscuits, or dried fruit. Morning tea should be packed separately from your child’s lunch and kept in their bag. This allows them to access their snack when they’re hungry while keeping their lunch for later.
Please place your child’s lunch in a named container with an ice brick and leave it in their bag in their locker.
A piece of fruit or vegetable for afternoon tea can be placed in the basket at the entry table.
Please refrain from packing chocolates, lollies, cakes, buns, and sweet biscuits. We follow the Department for Education’s healthy eating guidelines and actively promote healthy food choices. A copy of our Healthy Food Policy is available.
Children need to bring a named drink bottle filled with water each day. Water is available for refills if needed. Children are encouraged to drink plenty of water, especially during hot weather. Please do not send fruit juices or cordial.
Children are generally asked not to bring toys from home, as they may get lost or broken. However, we acknowledge that for some children, a familiar toy can provide comfort. We recognise the important role this can play in helping a child feel safe and supporting a successful transition to kindergarten. If your child needs to bring a familiar toy for comfort, please let us know, and we’ll work together to ensure its managed appropriately.
