THE smells wafting up the corridors of Upper Yarra Secondary College often prove too tempting for early staffers.
It’s not just the students who need a good brekky, and tasty toasties are a big hit.
“Brekky @ the Buses” co-ordinated by Chaplaincy and sponsored by the Bendigo Bank, is a Tuesday morning ritual.
Using three machines, being careful not to blow any fuses, a dedicated team makes over 160 toasted cheese and tomato sandwiches.
They are committed to making sure tummies are full and students are greeted with a friendly smile.
Having had her granddaughter just finish Year 12 at Upper Yarra, the team co-ordinator Judy Morris said she knew only too well how many teenagers left home in the mornings with only minutes to spare, often not having the breakfast they needed for a good start to the day.
By providing toasties, they hope that UYSC students will be more attentive in school and on other days may be encouraged to eat well.
