Our school tuckshop proudly provides students, staff, and community members with delicious, nutritious homemade meals and snacks.
Ordering from the tuckshop lets you take a break from lunch prep, knowing your children are eating the food you would make yourself. It’s great for the kids, too – they’ll have tummies full of goodness and if you order over the counter, they’ll get the chance to use their social skills, make healthy food choices and practice money handling.
We are open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday during school term. You can find us busy at work on open days from 8:30am.
We’re situated in the corner of the hall block. View the school map to see our location.
Online: Use Flexischools to order online. Orders must be received by 8am on the day.
In Person: You can also order in person, over-the-counter from 8 to 9.15am on open day, and pay with cash or EFTPOS.
We offer a regular menu of sandwiches, salads and healthy snacks, with a different daily special every day we are open.
Our tuckshop is open from 8.30am every day except Tuesday during school term. Orders are served at first break on those days.
We encourage you to place your orders and pay securely online at any time, day or night. Or you can order by ‘brown paper bag’ over the counter each tuckshop morning before 9.15am.
You can pay with EFTPOS at the tuckshop counter, or pay online with flexischools.com.au
Orders are ready to go at 11am (first break). Our prep students have their lunches delivered directly to their eating area. For all other grades, one or two students from each class come to the tuckshop to collect their class tray to take to their eating area.
Don’t worry we won’t let your child go hungry. Please contact the office and advise the admin staff to advise us that your child requires tuckshop, ensuring to let us know of any allergies. We will ensure your child get fed and give your child a note to be take home stating the items consumed and amount to be paid. Please bring the money owing the next day to tuckshop.
Don’t worry we won’t let your child go hungry. They will be asked to go to the office to that the school can contact a parent or carer, to ensure we are informed of allergies and check that its ok to provide tuckshop. Upon confirmation, we will provide them with something to eat. A note will be sent home with the student stating the item and amount to be paid. Please bring the money owing the next day to tuckshop.
Offering our 580+ students and staff healthy, homemade meals (and on-time!) is a huge undertaking and we have a dedicated, part-time team of paid staff. Even with our team, we simply couldn’t operate without the help from our much appreciated volunteers. If you are keen to help out, please email us at hello@nfsspandc.com.au and we’ll go from there .. we’d love to see you!

We love new faces!
Can you help out, or know someone that can? The kids love seeing someone they know behind the counter and it’s a great way to get to know others in the school community. We’ll always send you home with a little something delicious at the end of your shift.
Our volunteer hours are about 8.45am to 11am, as often or little as you like. We work with your schedule! Reach out to our tuckshop manager on email hello@nfsspandc.com.au or sign up with our volunteer application form.
We understand not everyone has time to volunteer in the tuckshop and donating homebaked treats is a great alternative.
Our tuckshop sells a range of homemade treats. We accept homebaked good donations from parents any morning we are open. All proceeds from the sale of homebakes goes directly back to the kids by subsidising our other menu items and keeping as low as possible.
Our kids love brownies, cupcakes and cookies – please note all homebake must be nut free and have no icing (just add sprinkles!).
Our tuckshop is open from 8.30am every Monday, Wednesday and Friday during school term. Orders are served at first break on those days.
Also on Fridays at second break, we sell icypoles for 50c, $1.50 and $2 – the students come to the tuckshop counter to purchase an icy pole of their choice, so much fun!
We encourage you to place your orders and pay securely online at any time, day or night. Or you can order by ‘brown paper bag’ over the counter each tuckshop morning before 9.15am.
You can pay with cash or use our EFTPOS at the tuckshop counter, or pay online with flexischools.com.au
