School lunches—We understand that occasionally a child may forget a packed lunch and need a school lunch, or want to change a meal choice. We will always try to accommodate these requests, but please be aware that the food ordering is only done once per week and only sufficient supplies for the pre-orders are bought and in some cases preparation of food is made the day before. With this in mind, please be aware that late (less than a week) changes to meal choices may not always be possible and if a child forgets a packed lunch, they may not be able to choose.
