We wish to inform you that Libelle Group, who operate our school canteen, have gone out of business. As a result, today Friday 14 March, will be their last day of trading, and from Monday 17 March until further notice, we will no longer have an on-site canteen operating at Garin College.
We strongly encourage students to bring their own lunch each day, along with a snack for morning tea and a water bottle. Chilled water stations are available throughout the school for refills.
Additionally, there is no change to our attendance policy, all students (other than Year 13 students), must remain on-site throughout the school day.
We understand that this change may cause some disruption, and we are actively assessing replacement solutions for our Garin College canteen service.
In the interim, we have partnered with ezlunch, which provides parents with the option to order lunch from Pita Pit or Subway. These meals will be delivered to Garin College and distributed to students between 12:50 – 1:00pm each day, while we trial this service. Please see attached for more information around ordering or click here.
Note that Garin College does not receive any financial benefit from this arrangement, and any issues with orders will need to be resolved directly between parents/students and ezlunch.
We appreciate your support and understanding as we work through this transition.
Ngā mihi nui,
John Maguire
Principal
