Our Coolangatta State School tuckshop is open every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday for first break orders.
Coolangatta’s Tuckshop is run on a Volunteer basis and always needs the assistance of volunteers to keep it open. If you can help out, please contact the school. Grandparents with blue cards are also welcome.
Green – “Have plenty”
Nutritious foods and drinks including breads, rice, pasta, noodles, vegetables, fruit, lean meat, fish, poultry, nuts and fruit juice.
Amber – “Select carefully”
Foods and drinks with some nutritional value and moderate amounts of saturated fat, sugar or salt, including processed meats, snack food bars and small serves of full-fat milk and yoghurt.
Red – “Serve occasionally"
Non-nutritious foods and drinks that are very high in fat, sugar and salt including all soft drinks, lollies, chocolates and fried foods such as hot chips. The new strategy will apply not only to school canteens but any area where food and drink is supplied in state schools. This includes fundraising events, vending machines, excursions, camps, classroom rewards, sports days and curriculum activities. The strategy does not affect food and drinks in lunches that students and staff prepare at home or birthday cakes that students bring to school.
