Fun Lunch through Healthy Hunger
Our School Council coordinates a “FunLunch or Snack” every week for our families to participate in (if you choose). You can purchase as many or few lunches and snacks as you wish. To get started first you need to register for a healthy hunger account.
Have a child at another school that is using Healthy Hunger? You can simply log in to your existing account and add your Connect Student to your current Healthy Hunger Account!! It’s easier than you might think. Click HERE to get started.

Pick Up will be on Oct 7 from 3:15pm – 4:30pm in the school gym.
