💜 Fun lunch reminders:
Please make sure to send your kiddo(s) with lunch if you do not plan to purchase fun lunch.
If you do order, it's a good idea to send your kiddo(s) with some options to complement the fun lunch if they are picky eaters.
If your child is absent the day of the fun lunch, please be aware that they may forfeit the lunch, as it may may not keep for long or get donated.
If you'd like to get a head start on future fun lunch days, please place your order on the Hot Lunch website now/anytime: https://lochside.hotlunches.net/
Our final 2024 Fun Lunch was Fri. Dec 13 (Dominos). Orders closed Dec. 5th.
Our first 2025 Fun Lunch will be announced soon! Thank you for participating in 2024.
