Lunch & Snack Information

At St. Philip Preschool, we offer catered lunches provided by Friendly Catering. Lunches are available for $4.50 per day.

Lunch orders must be placed before the start of each month (an exact deadline will be provided), and orders are submitted for the entire month. Order slips can be found on the bulletin board outside the St. Philip Preschool office.

 

If you choose to send a lunch from home, please ensure it is packed in a lunch box and is ready to eat, as we are unable to heat or refrigerate food. Please make sure all food is cut to an appropriate size for your child’s age. Be sure to include a napkin, any needed utensils, and a drink (water, white milk, or 100% juice). We do not allow sugary desserts such as candy, cookies, and snack cakes.

 

Lunchtime is a fun and enjoyable part of the day for the kids!
