Ordering of food

Method 1: Karri App

  • You are welcome to order hot food for grade 1 – 7 on the Karri App twice a day.
    - 1st break orders must be in before 07:00.
    -  Lunch orders must be in before 12:00.
  • It is your own responsibility to make sure that your payment went through and that your child knows that you ordered for them for either 1st break or lunch.
  • Parents of grade 1 to 3 learners are encouraged to order water instead of cooldrink.
  • Karri App Notifications getting too much for you?! – You are welcome to change your notifications to email or put them on silent. Also, you do not have to dismiss the notifications. Just ignore the notification if you are not interested – they will disappear from your app when the order close.
  • We can also take you off the list, but note that we will not put you back on again. You will still receive school related Karri app notifications but not tuck shop notifications. Whatsapp your child’s name and surname, grade and your name and surname to 071 281 5002 if you wish to be taken off the list.
  • Please also be mindful and patient of the fact that the Karri App food orders were put in place as a support structure to help parents navigate busy work schedules, parenting, unexpected sport events and unforeseen empty cupboards. Although this is not a perfect solution, it is a solution for now. Other methods (like card systems) are being explored.
  • If your child forgot to collect their order – we will keep their food until the next day (and for
    1 day only, to ensure food safety). Unfortunately, we cannot search for a child when they forgot their food. We do however send the grade 1 to 3 teachers a list of names daily of who ordered food and they send or remind the little ones to collect their food.
  • If you have any questions or do not receive Karri App notifications, please contact the tuck shop at 071 281 5002.

Method 2: Ordering of food at the tuck shop

  • All daily hot food for Gr 1 – 7 learners must be ordered before school for break time.
  • Payment is required when an order is placed. No credit will be given to children.
  • Orders for after school must be placed before 12:00 please. Although we will never turn a child away who wants food after school – it helps to know quantities and incorporate it with our heavy load shedding schedule!

Opening hours

General hours:
The Valie Café will be open as follows:

  • Monday – Thursday: 07:00 – 15:00

Should there be sport days or matches played after these hours, the tuck shop will endeavour to serve the learners and the parents if it is possible.

Opening hours for grade 1 to 3:

  • Gr 1 – 3 will have tuck (sweets) once a week on a date arranged with their teacher.
  • Should your child require any hot food for lunch or break times, they are welcome to follow the procedure as set out above or order on the Karri App.
  • Remember to order water, instead of cooldrink!

Other information:
Please be considerate of the following information:

  • We need adequate time to prepare food – especially with our heavy load shedding situation.
  • There will be no accounts / credits allowed.
  • Please be patient as we will be adapting and making changes as needed.

Parents are welcome to support the Valie Café any time after 12:00. A card machine will also be available for your comfort.

ALERT!! Parent support - stationary !!!

The Valie Café also have a bit of basic stationary available for that lost pencil, ruler, eraser, or pen. If your child has lost a crucial piece of stationary and you are overloaded at work – just send us a WhatsApp (071 281 5002) and we will let you know what we have in stock!

Thank you for your support!
