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.
The canteen is open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Fridays. The preferred method is to order online by 9am on the day using the Flexischools order link or simply place your child's order and correct money in a paper or sealed bag with your child's name and class and hand to the canteen before 9am. Lunches are then collected and delivered to the classrooms. Menus may change periodically and are available from the canteen.

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.

Important Update: Uniform Shop Transition
Firstly, we would like to sincerely thank all of our wonderful parents and carers for your continued support over the years. Your involvement has helped make the Lakelands P&C Uniform Shop a valued part of our school community.
After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to close the P&C-run uniform shop and transition all uniform stock to Poppets in Wollongong.
Trading from Poppets will commence Friday 23rd May 2025 online at https://poppets.com.au/ or in store.
Bucket Hats, Caps and Beanies are available for purchase from the school office with correct cash only, or by ordering through the Flexischools app and you will be notified when ready to pick up from the school office.
Poppets is a friendly, locally owned company located on Montague Street, Wollongong. They are open Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm, and also offer the convenience of an online store with free shipping. While there will be a small price increase, we believe this transition is the best step forward for our Lakelands community, ensuring long-term sustainability and improved accessibility.
Thank you again for your support and understanding as we make this important change.
Warm regards,
Lakelands Public School P&C
