Each school in NSW offers something slightly different depending on the community. Here's what we offer for you.
Canteen
All canteens in NSW public schools must meet certain requirements. These include providing more healthy food and drink options – to make the healthy choice an easy choice for students. Visit Healthy school canteens to learn more.
Burke Ward Public School Canteen is open Monday to Friday from 8.40am.
Students are able to order their lunch in the morning between 8.40am-9.00am. They are also able to purchase snacks during lunch time. The canteen is not open for recess.
In 2018, the canteen menu was updated to fall in line with the Healthy Canteen Policy. A copy of our Summer and Winter canteen menu can be found below.

Winter Canteen Menu (Available Term 2 and Term 3 )
Uniforms
When students wear a school uniform, they feel included in our school community.
Students, teachers, parents and carers, as well as members of our local community helped develop our school uniform to make sure it:
meets the requirements of occupational health and safety, anti-discrimination and equal opportunity legislation
includes items that are affordable, comfortable and made from easy-care and easy-wear fabrics
is appropriate for the full range of school activities
is suitable for all body shapes.
