Our Canteen

Our Canteen is more than a place to purchase lunch. It is a busy College facility designed to support food preparation, student service and catering throughout the school day.

Dedicated preparation, storage and service areas allow the team to prepare and distribute a wide selection of food efficiently. Cashless point of sale facilities also help students move through the Canteen quickly during busy service periods.
