Tuckshop

The Gumtree Eatery

The P&C operates a Tuckshop named ‘The Gumtree Eatery’ which is located underneath B block at the front of the school. It serves meals at first and second break each school day. The Tuckshop prepares and sells a range of healthy food in keeping with the QLD government’s Smart Choices Strategy.

All Tuckshop meals for first and second breaks must be ordered through Flexischools by 8:00am each day. Students in Years 1-6 can visit the Tuckshop during first and second break to purchase snacks, drinks and fruit (cash only).

**Please note that Prep Students are not permitted to visit the Tuckshop counter.

Orders for plain milk, yogurt, custard or frozen treats will need to be collected from the Tuckshop. A coloured stamp on the student’s Tuckshop bag indicates they will need to bring the bag to the Tuckshop to collect the cold item.

Due to the current COVID-19 health crisis, Tuckshop hours are reduced. Meals can be ordered for first break only on Monday and Tuesday and both breaks on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Please check current days/times on Flexischools.

Gumtree Eatery Menu

The Gumtree Eatery Menu is available to download or a copy can be collected from the tuckshop. Please note, this is subject to change without notice.

How to Order

The only way to order is online through Flexischools. Please note that orders placed in this way incur a small service charge. Online ordering is convenient and provides you with a 24/7 payment and ordering system that can be accessed from home, work or on a mobile device. Uniform items can also be purchased online via Flexischools. Registration is free and only takes a few minutes. Visit www.flexischools.com.au to register your student.

Emergency Orders

If a child’s lunch is forgotten, there is a Late Lunch Order option available on Flexischools after the usual 8:00am cut-off time. This will run from 8:00am until 10:30am. Late Lunch Orders come in several options, please see Flexischools for details.

Tuckshop Volunteering

The Tuckshop operates with the support of volunteer parents and carers. By having regular volunteers the Tuckshop is able to continue its wide offering and also keep the menu pricing and operating costs low. If you have some time available to help out, even as little as an hour, your help would be gratefully appreciated by our Tuckshop team. Volunteer slots begin at 8.45am each day and duties include labelling bags, preparing food, serving and cleaning.

Contact the friendly Tuckshop Convenors for more information or to request the volunteering link to sign up online. We thank you for your assistance.
