School Meal Program 2026-2027

Craigflower Elementary is pleased to offer the School Meal Program, providing students with access to a nutritious lunch each day. We believe that no child should go hungry at school, and all families are welcome to access the program.
Registration
To participate in the School Meal Program, a School Meal Program Consent Form must be completed, signed, and returned to the school office. Participation can begin when a signed consent form has been received.
Cost and Family Contributions
The cost of each lunch is $4.00 per day and is designed to provide approximately one-third of a child’s daily recommended nutrient intake.
Government funding helps support the program; however, family contributions are essential to help us continue offering nutritious meals to all students.
Families may choose one of the following contribution options:
  • Full Cost: $80 per month per child
  • 50% Contribution: $40 per month per child
  • Alternative Arrangements: If you are unable to contribute the minimum amount, please contact the school office to discuss other options.
Payment Options
Payments can be made by:
  • School Cash Online (available through the home page of our school website)
  • Cheque payable to Craigflower Elementary
Breakfast Program
Breakfast is available free of charge to all students.
While there is no cost to participate, donations are always appreciated and help support the continued success of the program.
Important Information
  • The School Meal Program can accommodate milk and orange juice allergies only.
  • We are unable to make menu substitutions based on food preferences or dislikes.
  • Families are encouraged to review the monthly menu with their child.
  • If there is an item your child cannot eat or chooses not to eat, please send a substitute from home for that day. The School Meal Program will provide the remainder of the meal.
Questions?
If you have questions about the School Meal Program or require assistance completing the consent form, please contact the school office.
We look forward to supporting healthy, happy learners throughout the school year. 🍎🥪🥛
