Our menu is a smart choice
The YSS Tuckshop menu observes the Smart Choices Strategy of Education Queensland. It ensures that our menus provide healthy food and drink choices for our kids. For more detailed information please visit Queensland Association of School Tuckshops Inc.
Most of the meals prepared in the tuckshop are made fresh each day by volunteers. We pride ourselves on offering a healthy and delicious menu but we need many volunteers to do it!
Frequently asked questions
Why can sushi only be purchased online?
The school encourages your child’s main meal to be eaten at 1st Break. Orders need to be finalised early so they can be prepared by our supplier.
Why is hot food only available at first break?
As first break is our main eating time and volunteers only work in the tuckshop in the morning.
My child has food allergies, can they use the tuckshop?
We want every child to be able to order every day. Please come and talk to us at the tuckshop so we can source alternatives according to your child’s needs.
Can I add or subtract things from an order?
Feel free to substitute sauces or subtract ingredients, but please not add. This makes it very difficult when preparing meals in the tuckshop.

Volunteers play a huge part in the successful running of our Tuckshop and in ensuring the menu items are as affordable as possible for families.
You can help by volunteering as little as two hours each term. Shifts are from 9.00-11.00am each Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of school term. No experience is needed – if you can make a sandwich or cut up fruit, this is the volunteer opportunity for you!
Volunteers also bake the choc chip muffins sold in the tuckshop so the opportunities to help are endless.
The kids really enjoy seeing their parents, carers and loved ones helping in the tuckshop and it’s a great way to meet new people.
To volunteer please email tuckshop@yerongasspandc.org.au
