Universal Hot Lunch

October 29, 2024

We are excited to announce the launch of our universally available nutrition lunch program pilot, made possible by increased funding from the Province of Manitoba and continued support from The Winnipeg School Division, Breakfast Clubs of Canada, Child Nutrition Council of Manitoba, President’s Choice Children’s Charity, and community organizations and members. This program is scheduled to begin Tuesday, October 1st. This program is offered every Tuesday and Thursday for all Mulvey students from Grades 1-6. It is also available for Nursery and Kindergarten students to take home to enjoy, with prior arrangements. It is open to all students, regardless of whether they are currently registered in the regular lunch program.

Important Registration Information:

  • Registration Required: Even if your child will only be participating in the free pilot lunch program on Tuesdays and Thursdays, they must still be registered in the parent council lunch program. This aids in the organization of supplies, supervision, as well as food requirements (ex: allergies, food restrictions, etc.)
  • Daycare Students: Students who are registered to attend daycare will remain registered and under the direct supervision of daycare personnel during the full 1-hour lunch time. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, they will stay at Mulvey School under the supervision of daycare staff during both the recreation and lunch portions of the lunch hour.
  • Menu Availability: The monthly menu will be listed in the school newsletter, available on the Mulvey website, and sent home as a hard copy with your child. There will be vegetarian and meat selections each Tuesday and Thursday (allergies and food restrictions will be considered).
  • Alternative Lunch Options: If your child does not prefer the menu selection on a given day, please send a lunch from home with them if they are regularly attending Mulvey School Parent Council Lunch program. If they do not regularly attend the Mulvey School Parent Council Lunch program and do not prefer the menu selection you can continue with your regular routine of going home for lunch as usual, as long as the office is made aware. 

We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring all children are registered, which helps us manage the program effectively and provide the best experience for all students. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at (204) 786-3469.
