At Mairehau we are issuing lunches to students in the free and healthy school lunch programme; catering for their requirements including diet, health and cultural needs. Water bottles are all that is needed from home.
Over the last year we have been working closely with the Ministry of Education and our supplier, The Compass Group, on the best way to meet our school’s lunch needs.We are very excited to be part of this project as we know that student achievement is boosted by a healthy diet.
To find out more about the programme please contact the school (Mr Romana/Ms Murphy)
More information found on the Ministry of Education Site.
If you wish to provide feedback please go via the lunches4me portal.
If you have dietary requirements please email Ms Murphy
