The canteen service is required to cater for a significant proportion of approximately 1800 students and 200 staff members across 2 campuses during both Victorian term periods (with the exception of public holidays and pupil free days unless otherwise arranged) and some school holiday periods.
Rowville Secondary College is in the North Eastern Region of the Department of Education and Training which services a large residential area and surrounding community of inner northern metropolitan Melbourne approximately 35 km from the Melbourne CBD.

The school has a current enrolment of 1800 students in year 7 through to year 12, across 2 campuses. It is expected that enrolment will increase to a maximum of 2000 students over the ensuing years.

Physical features of the school include a Sports Precinct which operates 48 weeks of the year, and most evenings to 10pm, a gymnasium, 600 seat Performing Arts Center which is hired out most weekends and a swimming pool operated by Paul Sadler Swimland.

The student population, assumed to be represented by a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds, is likely to be characterised by a reasonable percentage of families with both parents working and high socio-economic status.

The Western Campus has Stud Park Shopping Center within a 2 minute walk as it's main competition (students moving between campuses travel by foot to Stud Park and then catch public transport to the other campus).

Site visit: The Principal of Rowville Secondary College offers prospective providers an opportunity to view the school canteen facilities on 23 July 2019.

No more than two (2) attendees from the same service provider may attend the same site visit. All attendees must sign the attendance record which will be provided at each site visit.

A current provided canteen service exists at the school which has been the arrangement for the last 2 years.
Facilities available for use by the successful service provider to deliver the services required include 2 commercial grade kitchens.
