CANTEEN
Balaklava School's Canteen, in partnership with Balaklava Primary and High Schools, extends heartfelt thanks to the dedicated volunteers who generously give their time. Their invaluable support is crucial in keeping costs low and ensuring the canteen's viability for future families. Despite their busy schedules, our parents and friends continue to make time to volunteer, highlighting their commitment to our community.
Volunteer duties include general cleaning and food preparation. While there is an opportunity to interact with students and staff, it is not essential. Tasks such as money handling or serving are managed by our paid employees, allowing volunteers to focus on supporting essential operations.
We are immensely grateful to our current volunteers, but our numbers are dwindling. If you are willing to help and meet the minimum requirements for volunteering within a school setting, we would love to hear from you. Our hours of operation are 9 am to 3 pm, and whether you can assist with daily setup, food preparation over lunchtime, or half an hour of cleaning before school pick-up, your contribution would make a significant difference.
For more information on supporting our canteen, please contact Elly Swift at Balaklava High School via email at elly.swift570@schools.sa.edu.au or by phone at 08 8862 0600.
A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteers: Jane Brook, Lisa Watson, Barb Rodgers, Lauren March, Sascha Tiller, Tammy Nicholls, Alisha Senior, and Jeremy Lomman. We also extend our gratitude to all the special individuals who have contributed in the past. We couldn't provide this service without your generosity.
