The grade 5/6's will be cooking lunch for 1 or 2 grades each week. The classes it will be offered to will change each week. The food will be freshly made by the 5/6 class and as much as possible will use ingredients from the school garden. Notes will be sent home the week before for students to order. The lunches will vary between soups, pasta dishes and rolls - depending on what's available, and we will be aiming to keep the costs between $3.00 -$5.00. Money raised will buy ingredients for the lunches plus support the garden. The first few meals we are expec ng to make will be a pesto pasta and a pumpkin soup from the garden - so stay tuned for yummy lunches! Patrick For being warm and welcoming to a returning student!
