Cafeteria Balances and Lunch Passes
As our current cafeteria provider, Sodexo, prepares to conclude its services on Saturday, 20 June 2026, we would like to share a few important reminders:
- FoodiE Wallet / ID Card Balances: We encourage all students and parents to consume any remaining balances in their ID cards or FoodiE wallets. Please note that top-ups will no longer be accepted starting Monday, 01 June.
- Arrangement for Lunch Passes: Beginning Monday, 18 May, any child who needs a lunch pass will be provided with cash to purchase a meal through the Primary or Senior secretaries. An email will be sent to the parents informing them of the amount to be paid directly to the secretaries.
We appreciate your continued support and understanding during this transition.
Parent Workshops
Fuel for Learning: A Parent Conversation on Food at School, Wednesday, 20 May 2026, 08.00am-09.00am, Senior FoodiE Bistro
Over the course of this year, BSM has hosted five nutrition workshops for parents or family helpers, reaching over 200 members of our community. These sessions have reinforced what research and experience both tell us: there is a strong link between diet and learning.
We are now inviting parents to join a collaborative workshop to help shape our next steps. This session is designed to hear your perspectives and explore an important question: what guidance should BSM provide on snacks, food, and nutrition in school?
Together, we will discuss the balance between clear school guidelines and parent autonomy, and what level of support would be most helpful for families. Through guided questions and open discussion, we aim to gather insights that reflect the needs and values of our community.
Your voice is an important part of this process, and we hope you will join us in shaping a thoughtful, balanced approach to supporting our children’s well-being and learning.
Please register here on or before Tuesday, 19 May, if you would like to attend this Parent Workshop.
'Helping Families Navigate and Flourish through Transition', Wednesday, 27 May 2026, 08.00am-09.00am, LRC Level 2
Moving countries, returning “home,” saying goodbye to friends, or adjusting to change can bring both excitement and challenge for families. This workshop will support families in navigating transitions with resilience, connection, and well-being.
Whether your family is leaving, staying, or beginning a new chapter, this session will help you feel supported and empowered through change.
Please register here on or before Tuesday, 26 May, if you would like to attend this Parent Workshop.
