We’ve pleased to announce we’ve changed suppliers this year to Panago Pizza, allowing us to drop costs down by .80 cents per slice while offering gluten and dairy free pizza at the same price. Big wins for our school! Panago offers great School initiatives and support, and organic pizza sauce and healthier ingredients.

Students cannot bring money into school to buy pizza, since we have no ability to make change and we want to ensure that they have parental permission to buy pizza, and we also have to preorder the pizza.

When there is a holiday or snow day on a Monday we will do “Pizza Tuesdays”. No refunds, replacement lunches, or pick up options will be given for missed days due to sickness or vacations.

Communications for pizza and popcorn sales are sent out via weekly emails from the Principal and emails from your School Council. If you are not receiving emails, please contact [email protected] to make sure you are getting important information from the school.

Meal Service Frequently Asked Questions

1. When I order, do I have to list my child under their homeroom teacher?

All food orders are separated by the child’s homeroom teacher, therefore it is VERY important that you properly identify your child’s homeroom teacher. If you don’t know, please check with the school before completing your order.

2. Can the food suppliers accommodate allergies?

Our suppliers are very careful to avoid the risk of cross-contamination of common allergens (like tree nuts, peanuts, and sesame) in food preparation and delivery. Parents with concerns about allergies can make a note on their order, and/or contact School Council at: School Council

3. Can I pay with cash or cheque?

We no longer accept cash or cheques for online orders. These payment options require significant volunteer time so School Council voted to move to online payment only. Therefore, you will notice there is no longer a PayPal fee. The current electronic payment system offers several secure ways to pay.

4. Are there nutrition guidelines for the food?

All food complies with the nutrition standards established by the Ministry of Education and Ottawa Carleton District School Board .  All suppliers are approved by the Board as well, and offer adapted menus that meet the nutrition standards. For example, this means that the pizza your child receives may have been modified from `restaurant-style` pizza to meet these guidelines (i.e. for limited fat and sodium levels). This year’s suppliers for Pizza is Pizza Pizza.
