As we begin Term 1 and welcome in 2026, ASCA is excited to support you with new resources, improved tools, and a renewed commitment to helping school canteens thrive. Whether you’re returning after a wellearned break or diving straight into the busy back-to-school season, we’re here to help make this year your most successful yet. We’re proud to launch our new ASCA website in Term 1, designed to make it easier than ever to access supplier product information, offers, canteen resources, and member support. We are also working towards an enhanced Canteen Resource Centre, packed with updated templates, calculators, guides, and tools to help you run a more efficient, profitable, and sustainable canteen. ASCA continues to negotiate great prices with our supplier partners, ensuring you have access to quality products at competitive rates. Don’t forget to check your monthly ASCA Calendar specials, and make the most of your ASCA Rewards points—a valuable way to stretch your budget even further.

We’re also pleased to offer FREE access to ASCAplus, giving you exclusive perks and discounts for personal purchases. It’s our way of saying thank you for the incredible work you do in your school community. And yes—Celebrate Canteen Week is back in 2026! It’s a chance to recognise your dedication, creativity, and impact. We’ll be celebrating with giveaways, shout-outs, and stories from across the country. Ensure you are following us on Facebook this year to keep up with all of your ASCA benefits and community. Most importantly, your support as an ASCA member—through ordering from our Preferred Suppliers and Distributor partners—helps fund the education of vulnerable children through the ASCA Education Foundation. We strive to save schools money on their purchasing, and your loyalty translates to funds for our Charitable Foundation. Your participation makes a real difference. Please ensure you are aware of the ASCA suppliers and distributors to enable this - visit our website at www.asca.com.au. Here’s to a year of growth, connection, and community. Let’s make 2026 a standout year—together. Christine Bucca, ASCA CEO.
