Menu and Order Forms are available in the school office.

The Board of School Trustees Social Responsibility Work Group has established new guidelines for food choices in schools. All schools have a transition plan beginning 2006 to be fully implemented by 2009. Starting this year, Uplands Elementary is offering some healthier food choices in accordance with these guidelines. The lunch form attached reflects some of these choices.

The lunch forms will be sent home in October.

Please make cheques payable to Uplands PAC.

Please indicate your child’s name and teacher’s name on the cheque (or envelope if it is a cash payment). Please let your child know if they are receiving a hot lunch that day.

We need a support team to help fill and deliver food bins as well as assist kids in the classroom. If parents or grandparents are available any Thursday morning from approximately 11 am until 12:20 , would you please fill out the bottom of your child’s hot lunch form. We can’t run a successful program without volunteers!

As well, Uplands school must strike a “Healthy Food Team” made up of representatives from school administration, support staff, teachers, and parents. The team will meet to respond to the guidelines, identify school issues and develop policies on promoting and encouraging healthy choices in our school. If you are interested in participating, please contact your PAC representatives.

If you have any financial concerns, please contact the PAC representatives listed below.

Thank you!
