The Tuckshop is the responsibility of the Freshwater State School P&C. We aim to provide a quality service to the school community through offering a varied selection of healthy food and drinks at an affordable price.
The Tuckshop operates Monday to Friday during term time and is managed by the convenor, Melissa Bennett. Mel is joined by Gail, Tomo,Kat and Addy who make up our amazing tuckshop team. The ladies are barista trained and make a mean coffee, open at drop off time.

Paper bag ordering
Ordering can be completed via a traditional paper bag.
- Clearly write your child’s name and class, the items required and price of each, total cost of the order and whether it is required for first or second lunch on a paper bag (a sample is provided on the reverse of the tuckshop menu)
- Place the correct amount of money (if possible) in the bag and fold the top over. Do not use sticky tape or staples.
- Your child then places the paper bag with their order and money into the tuckshop box in their classroom.
If ordering items for both first and second lunch, please note that separate bags are required for each.
Foreign currency is not accepted by the tuckshop.
Volunteering
WE need volunteers, please come in and help out.
Volunteers are a vital part of the tuckshop service. Regular volunteer support helps the tuckshop run smoothly and keeps prices low. Volunteering in the tuckshop is a great way to get involved with your child’s school and meet new friends. You will gain food handling experience, and of course your child will love to see you working at 'their' school.
Volunteer hours and duties are flexible. Duties can range from cutting fruit to serving at the counter. Even if you are only available occasionally, any help you are able to give would be appreciated.
If you are interested in getting involved and helping out, email the Tuckshop at tuckshop@freshwaterpandc.com.au
IMPORTANT – all volunteers to the school must sign in (and out) at the School Office. Volunteers other than parents of students must hold a current Blue Card which is to be presented upon arrival.
