Lunch & Nutrition

A lunch program is offered for students traveling by bus and for whose parents are away from home during the day. Lunchroom supervisors provide inside and outside supervision during the lunch time. A monthly fee is required for this service to cover the costs of supervisors. Information is sent home in September. Payment can be made monthly or for the entire year.  

Lunch room students must have written permission from their parents to leave the school grounds. Students need to ensure that they will arrive back at school on time for afternoon classes.

 

NUTRITION

Developing good eating habits is an objective of the Health curriculum. All students are encouraged to bring healthy snacks to eat during breaks.

The school faculty will not sell or provide students with foods listed on Alberta Health Services Alberta Nutrition Guidelines for Children and Youth “choose least often” list. Foods from this category are very low in nutrients and higher in calories, fat, sugar and salt.
