Breakfast Program

Every Student Deserves a Great Start to Their Day

The Grab and Go Breakfast Program at Bawlf School, provided by the School Council, provides a nutritious snack daily to ensure no child starts their day hungry.  Many of our students have long bus rides and a quick snack before class provides the nutrition required to settle them into their first class and be ready to learn.  For more information please contact Christee Langkamp School Council Chair at bawlfschoolcouncil@gmail.com

Hot Lunch Program

​There is a healthy hot lunch scheduled almost once a week with a total of 32 lunches for the year. All dates can be found on the Bawlf School website calendar, Bulletin newsletter and Facebook page.

Hot Lunch Program Purpose & Guidelines

Program purpose:

The Hot Lunch Program at the Bawlf School was formed in 2010 stemming from a request from high school students looking for alternative healthy, affordable hot lunch at the school.  The program is a school council parent volunteer program that offers many delicious meals on a weekly basis to students and staff. The aim of the program is to provide this service to our school community at a reasonable cost to parents while at the same time generating some extra funds for the school.

 Program Objectives:

To provide hot lunches to the school community

To have a variety of options for parents, staff and students to choose from

To have an affordable lunch option available to all Bawlf School families and staff.

To offer a menu that provides healthy food choices and promotes healthy eating habits.

 Program Guidelines:

Program is available to all school staff, and families of Bawlf School.

This program is a School Council run program that relies on a coordinator to manage the program and parents volunteers to help on hot lunch days.

Restaurants chosen to be a part of the program must offer healthy alternatives, and be allergy conscious.
