How it Works

Once you’re in… here’s how to work through the website.

Step 1. MY ACCOUNT tab:

This page allows you to make changes to your school’s profile and account information under the My Account tab along the left-hand side of the page.

Step 2. My SCHOOL tab:

This page holds your school data and has a one-off agreement which allows you to add your school lunch break, special delivery instructions and Health & Safety documents etc.

Step3. MEAL INFORMATION tab:

This page allows you add number of lunches required and upload dietaries information.

  1. Non-Dietary Meal Requirements – Click on each size, enter Total Meals Required (ex. Dietaries).
  2. Student Dietary Information – This part allows you to enter your dietary meals, classroom list with student names and required dietaries to ensure the correct meals are delivered to the correct child. There are two ways to enter information here:

OPTION 1: Real Time Data

  • Add Student Name, Classroom, Age Group, Dietaries (drop down list) and UPDATE.
  • Use + to add student and to remove student.

OPTION 2: Bulk Updates

  • Click on Import Meal Information.
  • Download Meal Information Template – fill in all the required details and save file on your local desktop.
  • Then Upload the saved template – Click on Choose File – Select the saved template and hit UPLOAD.
  • Errors will trigger if there is missing or incorrect information.

Step4. The Ka Ora, Ka Ako Menu tab:

This will take you through to the menu for the term and allows you to edit individual days of the week. Your menu has been pre-imported with our recommended cycle. Anything illustrated in grey can no longer be edited manually – you will need to contact info@schoollunchcollective.co.nz to see if we can fulfil your requirements.

Changing the number of meals:

  1. Move to the date you would like the desired change to occur.
  2. Click on the edit button  in the top right-hand corner of that calendar date.
  3. Make the desired amendments in the correct meal size boxes (junior, intermediate, and senior meals).
  4. Don’t forget to give us a reason.
  5. Hit SAVE

Putting in Teacher only days, EOTC days, Regional holiday days:
