a new initiative of the food sharing project
Lunch is Ready!
The Food Sharing Project has introduced a pilot project to deliver free lunches to select schools.
Each week a different lunch will be available for you to order for your child at no charge! Lunch will include a main course item, a carton of milk, and fruit on the side. Main courses will include a variety of wraps, sandwiches, salads and more.
Kindergarten to Grade 3 students will receive a half-size portion which suits their smaller appetite.
THE ORDERING PERIOD IS NOW OPEN!
The next order deadline is Tuesday, June 10th, 2025, at 9:00pm.
Place your order between Friday, June 6th at 8:00am until the deadline, Tuesday, June 10th at 9:00pm, for lunches to be delivered the following week (June 18, 19, 20 depending on school).
TO PLACE YOUR ORDER
Begin by selecting your school from the list below and see the lunch available to order for the following week. Next, select the meal, choose the school and classroom teacher, and enter your child’s full name.
Lunch is provided at no charge unless you choose to pay some or all of the cost. Simply enter a zero in the price window. The limit is one lunch per student but you can place an order for each child attending this school at the same time.
Please note: Although our kitchens avoid nuts and nut products, at this time we do not have the ability to consider all allergens and we cannot guarantee our products are nut free. Our products may contain egg, dairy and other allergens. Please see the list of ingredients for the lunch item of the week on the order page. We apologize for the inconvenience.
