School Council

Le Page Primary School Council consists of 9 Councillors – 6 Parents and 3 DET Employees (2 Staff, plus the Principal). In line with Department of Education and Training Policy, the clear majority of members are Parents. Half the Council is elected each year and Councillors serve 2-year terms. The School Council determines School Policy within Departmental Guidelines and oversees the School Budget. We meet 8 times per year (twice per term).

Nominations and elections for Council are completed by the end of Term 1 each year. Being on School Council is a great way to contribute to the School for the benefit of all students and their families.

School Councillors may be contacted through the school’s email: le.page.ps@education.vic.gov.au

How it works:

1. Register your child
Register one or more children to confirm their school and class details. We require your contact telephone number and email address to send order and payment confirmations. You will then receive a password so that all future visits to our site are quick and easy.

2. Choose Menu Items to make a 2 or 3 Course Lunch
Browse our menu items online every term and select two or three courses from 30 options each day. Lunch Packs cost between $9.15 and $12.95 for a 2 Course lunch and between $11.20 and $14.65 for a 3 Course lunch. The cost of the Lunch Pack is determined by the Main Meal (Item1) choice you make.

3. Select dates to order for
You can order one day or as many days as you wish over the period of the menu, ordering up to 8:30am on the day it is required.

4. Confirm your order and payment
Payment is made when placing your order through a secure banking gateway accepting Visa and MasterCard, generating an email confirming your order and payment.
