St Patrick's College Strathfield

Canteen

The College operates a full-time canteen (for Years 5 to 8) and cafeteria (for Years 9 to 12) that offers a wide range of fresh, healthy foods and beverages for breakfast, recess, and lunch. The current provider is Bon Appétit Catering. 

Students can purchase breakfast before school starting at 8:15 AM.

Lunch Orders

Students are encouraged to pre-order their lunches.  All lunch pre-orders must be placed online using Flexischools before 8:00 AM, Monday to Friday. Parents should set up a Flexischools account online and pre-load the account with funds. Parents or students (at the discretion of parents) can then use the funds in their account to order and pay for lunch orders.

 

Payment

The canteen (and cafeteria) are cash-free.  All pre-orders should be placed via Flexischools. Students can make over-the-counter canteen purchases with their student ID card by linking it to their profile in the Flexischools App (student ID will be issued in February 2025).
