Breakfast price rise to $34 from this week

President Kym announced that Kailis had advised of a price increase for Breakfast going up $7 per week and reducing the breakfast from Cooked to Continental. Changing to fresh seasonal fruit, muesli, yogurt and pastries. The change is due to them not offering cooked breakfast at all to reduce costs. Looks like we will have to be healthy whether we like it or not. They were going to change the Barista coffee to brewed coffee only but have decided to let us have this for a little while longer
