House Keeping:

• Out of Office
  For those occasions that I am required to attend BASScare or conducting a meeting in the office, I will utilise a Whiteboard placed on the Reception counter to indicate my  whereabouts. Please feel free to call me if I’m away from the office & the matter is pressing
• Please note, if you would like to order from the Hester Canterbury Spring Menu for next week, ensure you have your order in to me by 12pm Thursday 8 September. ‘bon appetite’
• GLASS PLACED IN THE RECYCLE!
  We have had a few instances recently of glass bottles being placed in the refuse shoot and smashing before reaching the recycle bin, littering the refuse storeroom floor with glass. As this poses a risk to everyone’s safety, could I please ask that you either wrap the glass in paper or place it in a container first before discarding it down the refuse shoot. Thank you.
• Just a reminder that the Reception Contact number remains the same and I can be reached on either P: 8809 0300 or M: 0439 523 538.

Week Two of the Spring Menu starts on Monday 12 September.
Please place any orders by lunchtime the Thursday before.
Bon Appetit!
