EAT MY LUNCH

Panama Road School also receives a number of free lunches provided Monday-Thursday by the Eat My Lunch organisation. These lunches are available for students who have not been able to bring their own lunch for hardship reasons and are distributed in class by the teachers. We also have snacks provided by Kidscan, fruit provided by the Fruit in Schools programme and milk provided by Fonterra and this is available daily to all students at Panama Road School. Vision Ministry supply our school with sausage sizzles each Friday for lunch.
