Everything you need to know as a FALK FRESH FRUIT VOLUNTEER
LUNCH SERVICE is from 11:15am to 1:00pm
ARRIVAL
You are permitted to park in the bus lane or
semi-circle during your volunteer time.
Make sure you sign in at the main office and
get a visitor’s pass to wear during your visit.
If it is your first visit as a volunteer fruit
slicer, please introduce yourself to our
cafeteria personnel, Bertie, Anita and Kerry
so they can:
Show you where to put your personal belongings during your visit.
Show you where to wash your hands.
Show you where the fruit and necessary supplies can be found and the
best way to use them or handle them.
FRUIT CUTTING
Please follow these guidelines to help ensure the health and safety of our
children:
ALWAYS wear gloves when cutting and serving fruit.
• A cloth apron is available to wear while cutting
fruit but not required.
• Remind children (and adults) to use the serving
tongs to select their fruit.
• If a child is struggling with the tongs, you can offer
to help put the fruit on their tray. It’s also fine to give them
the time to work on this skill.
• Children are permitted to have a whole piece of fruit instead of sliced
pieces.
• All children are permitted to have the sliced fruit, even students who have
a packed lunch. Paper plates are available for those without a tray.
• Children have been encouraged by their teachers to take no more than
three or four slices of fruit at a time. Students are always allowed to return
for more fruit.
DEPARTURE
If you plan to be in the building longer, you will need to have your car out of
bus lane or Governor’s circle by 2:00pm as busses do start to arrive at this
time. Please remember to sign out so that we are not searching the building
for you if a car is blocking these lanes.
