Lunch & Milk Programs

Hot lunch will be available every Friday or the day before if there is no school.  Milk will be available every school day. Our hot lunch and milk programs will be ordered on a monthly basis. Our first round of ordering will be September 18-25, 2024 with milk starting October 1, 2024 and hot lunch starting October 4, 2024. We will send out date reminders starting in October. 

Snacks will NOT be provided, we will only be providing the entree.  

BOOSTER JUICE PROGRAM

Booster juice orders will be placed at the same time as hot lunch orders. It will be delivered once a month rotating Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Kindergarten parents please be sure to check your child is in class that day.

Please Note:

• No late orders will be accepted.
• Hot lunch only includes the entrée (snacks will not be provided).
• Hot lunch will be available every Friday or the day before if there is no school on Friday. If there is a class event (e.g. a field trip) scheduled on a hot lunch day after hot lunches have been ordered, your child's class will receive their lunch the day before.
• Should your child be away from school, we are unable to provide a refund for an unclaimed hot lunch.
• Kindergarten parents: Please check your calendar to ensure you only order lunch on days your child is at school.

Cash Orders

For cash sales we have a slotted lock box inside the main office in the school.  Please make sure to label the envelope/bag with your child’s name & class so we can put it on the right account.  We will accept cash or cheques (payable to Millgrove School Community Foundation). DO NOT send cash with your child.

Please ensure that your ORDER and PAYMENT are completed by 3:30pm on September 27, 2024 (or whatever the last sale date is) as no late orders can be accepted. 

Volunteers

Volunteers are important to make these programs a success. We will need 2 hot lunch volunteers each Friday. When you order hot lunch for your child, there will be a box to check if you can volunteer. 

If you are able to help with distributing hot lunches from approximately 11:45am-1pm on hot lunch days, please contact the Hot Lunch Coordinator and let her know your availability. We truly appreciate your help.
