Actions speak louder than words

In October 2022, QAST went out to all Queensland schools to see how we are doing as your ‘go to’ organisation for school tuckshops.

You told us that you love using our website, but that it can be difficult to navigate and access at times. You also love our recipes, sample menus and case studies (but want more), as well as our Menu Health Check service and our tuckshop training courses

We found that our free Financial Advisory Service for members is under-utilised and that our Supplier Directory and general product advice could do with some work.

The survey highlighted so much that will help us to help you, and we’re already putting the findings into action

We’ve recently made some improvements to our website and re-jigged our homepage. Our website member account process has had a complete overhaul, which has resulted in a smoother login process for website users

We have several new case studies lined up for Terms 1 and 2, as well as a suite of new resources and recipes that you’ll be able to put to use straight away

We’ve been chipping away at our online Supplier Directory, with some great new products and suppliers added, and more additions planned throughout the term

We’re also excited to launch a brand new online forum that will better connect tuckshop gurus not just in your own region, but across Queensland Read more about this on page 17

We will continue to use our regular communications, including our ever-popular Facebook page, Talking Tuckshops and Healthier Tuckshops eNewsletters to let you know about our services and resources, and timely tuckshop news and opportunities. Keep an eye on your inboxes and socials to stay in the know!
