Badalya 

Is the word for food in the Dharug dialect - the language spoken of traditional owners of the land where Ashfield Public School sits. By naming our canteen Badalya, we pay our respects to Aboriginal people past and present.

​

Having a daily canteen was an initiative undertaken by Ashfield Public School P&C who believed it was important to have a canteen that served healthy food in sustainable packaging for our school population. Now under the care and management of Yuko, the P&C is proud of our achievement and the school community really values the delicious home made food she offers.
