Information - Canteen

The Three Springs Primary School Canteen is operated by our P&C and supported by parent helpers. The canteen is ONLY OPEN THURSDAYs to offer our students some variety of choice each week.

Role of the School Canteen

  • The role of the school canteen is to provide a food service to students and staff that meets their nutritional needs, promotes healthy food, is part of a whole school approach, and is affordable and financially sustainable.
  • Profit making is a secondary objective and as the primary focus must remain on providing students with healthy alternatives once a week.
