Online ordering is via Flexischools, which is in the process of being setup and will be available Week 1 Term 3. Set Up Your Account also provides useful instructions.
The menu is new and we try and keep prices as low as possible. We have a smaller menu that is available over the counter everyday and a more comprehensive menu available online. So, to be sure you are guaranteed an item it is best to order online. For over the counter purchases will accept cash and Eftpos will be available.
All of our food is freshly made on site and we are committed to use locally sourced ingredients and reducing our environmental impact.
We are a Healthy School Canteen which means our menu is checked by NSW School Canteen Menu Check Service. To pass this check we must be over 75% what is considered Everyday Foods and the rest occasional foods. We are really excited about working at Newcastle High and look forward to meeting you next term!
School canteens play a vital role in providing healthy food and drink choices for students.
A healthy school canteen supports a 'whole-of-school' approach to student health and wellbeing, and reinforces healthy eating messages taught in the classroom.
The NSW Healthy School Canteen Strategy supports a culture of healthy eating in school by:
School canteens will promote freshly-made foods and only stock packaged goods that have a minimum 3.5 star Health Star Rating.
A new Healthy School Canteens Strategy replaces the current “traffic light” system in schools, which experts have found to be overly complex and too narrow in its consideration of nutrition. The new strategy offers simpler, easier to understand menus consistent with the latest Australian Dietary Guidelines.
Under the Healthy School Canteens Strategy:
Providing healthier options in school canteens is one of the ways the NSW Government can achieve its target to reduce childhood obesity by five per cent by 2025.
Obesity has significant health impacts for children with around one in five NSW children between the ages of five and 16 being overweight or obese. The new strategy stipulates that food sold in school canteens is healthy for children.
