Schools relying on sausage sizzles after tuckshops close

From Checkpoint, 5:26 pm on 31 March 2025

60 or so schools around the motu were left without a tuckshop provider after the Libelle Group went into liquidation. Libelle was contracted to Compass, the Government supplier for the scheme that's been plagued with issues since its relaunch this term. While some kura are exploring options like online meal delivery services - others are relying on school bake sales and sausage sizzles to step into the breach. Louise Ternouth reports.
