Spriggy Schools Canteen Orders
Parents can now place your canteen orders online with Spriggy Schools
We are excited to announce the introduction of a new online lunch ordering system.
Spriggy Schools will make lunch orders more convenient for both families and the canteen.
Steps to get started:
- Go to www.spriggyschools.com.au to register and download the app.
- Add a profile for each of your children, making sure you select Glen Huon Primary School and your child’s class.
- Start placing lunch orders!
If you have any questions, please contact Spriggy Schools via their website.
Please note the following:
- You must put money on your account prior to confirming an order
- Order cut off time is 10am Wednesday. This is set in the app and after 10am your order will be for the next week and will get missed.
- There is a charge of 30 cents per child per order. This is added to your order total. That is a fee from Spriggy.
Thank you for your support.

Volunteers needed!
We know your time is valuable, but we need more volunteers to help keep the canteen running.
You can do a full day 9-2pm or half a day 9-1130am / 1130-2pm. It’s not hard work, preparing the meals and serving at the counter or supervising older students while they serve. It’s a great way to be involved in the school and get to know students, staff and other parents.
If we don’t get more volunteers the canteen might not be able to run as we have had a number of parents stop helping for various reasons.
You do need your Working With Vulnerable People card (WWVP) and also your food handling certificate, both of which you can obtain online.
Please contact Laura Corbett for more information.
Breakfast Club
The morning rush to leave the house is often the most stressful part of the day for parents of school children. Making sure your kids are up, washed, dressed and have had a decent breakfast can be an uphill struggle, and if you’re trying to get to work yourself, it can be even more stressful.
At Glen Huon Primary School, we have something called Breakfast Club. It runs from 8.30am Monday to Friday and is staffed by volunteers from the Parents and Friends Association. We serve toast and milo to any student that would like something. Some days we have other things such as yoghurt, porridge, pikelets or grilled cheese on toast, depending on what donations we receive.
Our Breakfast Club at Glen Huon is largely funded by the school. We receive some donated bread from Banjos Bakery and also we get some items from Foodbank when we are able to get into the city.
If you would like to get involved, there are a number of things you can do:
- Volunteer to help serve. Send the Parents and Friends Association an email ghpsparentsfriends@outlook.com or call/message Laura on 0437177507
- Donate jams, honey, spreads. We go through 2-3 jars a week and are always looking for more.
- Donate breakfast items such as milk, cereal, flour, bread, eggs, baked beans.
- Sponsor us. If you know a business that would like to sponsor the Breakfast Club, please contact Laura on 0437177507 so we can get the ball rolling.
Thank you for your continued support.
