Our Clinton Tuckshop is a service owned and operated by the Clinton State School P & C Association. The tuckshop is available to all students and staff three days per week (Wednesday, Thursday & Friday) at both first and second breaks. It is run by our Tuckshop staff, whom are all employed by the P & C Association. The Tuckshop and P & C Committee are dedicated to ensuring we continue to adhere to the Queensland Government Smart Choices – Healthy Food & Drink Supply Strategy for Queensland Schools.
Our Tuckshop operates for service through our online Flexischools ordering platform – both website and app based. Ice blocks, drinks, treats and slushies are also available over the counter at second break for purchase.
Throughout the year, our tuckshop alters the menu to cater for the seasons. This is to ensure that we are able to continue to provide low cost and nutritional meals for all our customers – both staff and students. We source our products from an many local businesses to the Gladstone region as possible, ensuring that we support local business.
We hold two special treat days (known as Red Days) per term in accordance to “Smart Choices”, which change depending on the time of year. Some of our annual treat days include:
Easter Celebration
Halloween
Carnival – run at the same time as the Gladstone Show Holiday, and
our regular Pizza Day – supported by Domino’s Clinton
As these days are a big event for our tuckshop, we are always looking for parental help to assist on these days. Help is always welcome and it is a great way to get to know other parents and interact with the students. To find out more information and get involved, contact our Tuckshop Staff via email at clintontuckshop@outlook.com or via Facebook at the Clinton State School P & C Association page.
First break: 10.50 am to 11.20 am
Second break: 1.00 pm to 1.25 pm

The P&C Association at Clinton State School is passionate about positive parent partnerships and actively works in productive partnership with our school Principal and school community to promote the interests of our school, facilitate its development and improvement, and achieve the best possible outcomes for the current and future students. As part of our commitment to the school community, funds raised through our various fundraising events and tuckshop are used to maintain, improve and upgrade our facilities and resources.
Our P & C Association understands that time is limited for many, and we would greatly appreciate if all our families of Clinton State School contributes just one thing:
Attend P & C Meetings
Volunteer in the tuckshop
Help at fundraising events

Assist with Mothers / Fathers Day Stall
If everyone contributes just one thing to assist the P & C, imagine the amazing things we can achieve. To contact or join the P & C, please contact us via email at pandcclinton@gmail.com or via Facebook at Clinton State School P & C Association
