Free Milk In Primary Schools

Are there any Queenslanders out there who can remember having free milk at school? The bottles held 1/3 pint, and were consumed during “little lunch “.
I can remember one day I had milk duty, and I had gone to each class room to jot down the number of milk drinkers. My classmate and I then counted out the required bottles for each class. We decided to have a little contest, where
we would see who could drink the most bottles of leftover milk. I don’t remember the final tally, but I do recall being sick as a dog, with an over bloated stomach, and the milk being quite warm by this time.IMG_7201.jpeg
 
Good old day's!. We also had free milk in NSW. It was put on the seating area which was around a big pine tree. You had to get in quick to find one the birds hadn't pecked a hole in the shiny silver foil lid. We eventually got a big old fridge to store it in.
