Dear Parent/Carer,

From Monday 17th November the canteen are making changes to the procedures in place if a student does not have sufficient funds on their account to make purchases.

**Breakfast and Break Time**

Students will now need sufficient funds in their account to allow them to purchase breakfast and break time items and **lends on accounts will not be facilitated**.

**Lunch Time**

If, when purchasing lunch, a student does not have the funds available to make a purchase or to cover all selected items they will be offered a main meal tray option and a bottle of water and a lend will be added to their account that will need to be cleared when the account is topped up.

We hope this will avoid any confusion for parents/carers and students and support all students with their food choices during the day.

Yours faithfully,

Bishop Challoner Catholic College
