P&C School Canteen
Parents can quickly become a part of the MHS community by working in the school canteen. It is a fast, flexible way to make a contribution to school life while meeting other parents.
Merewether's canteen is a service operated by the P&C, managed by its Canteen Committee and staffed each day by a paid manager and parent volunteers.
Canteen Objectives
- to provide a safe, healthy and affordable food service to MHS students, staff and visitors
- to encourage student awareness of healthy food choices
- to create funds to be used for school-related purposes as determined by the P&C
Canteen Operations
We can offer a professional, profitable canteen service only because parents volunteer. The P&C's Canteen Committee look for ways in which to improve the canteen's offerings and service.
The Committee organises, controls, manages and administers the canteen operation and delegates tasks to employees, contractors and volunteers.

Qkr! ONLINE ORDERING SYSTEM
Merewether High P&C utilises the Qkr! online ordering system for the school canteen. With the Qkr! system, all costs are borne by the P&C and there will be no additional charges for students to order online.
Online ordering significantly streamlines canteen processes and saves students time in lining up to order their lunches or purchase from the self-service section.
It also minimises cash handling for both students and our canteen staff/volunteers. If you have any issues please email Michelle our Canteen Assistant Manager.
Canteen Volunteers
Parents are very welcome to join the committee or simply volunteer to work in the canteen - most choose once a month or once a term, and/or as a last-minute fill-in.
Please contact us with your availability, with any questions, or with ideas for how to improve the canteen operations at MHS Canteen.
Thanks to everyone who volunteers, we can only provide this service to students with your generous support. If your availability has changed please email our Canteen Manager.
