Food & Nutrition

Picture
Picture
We see meal times as an important opportunity for social interaction and a very important way of  building our children's confidence and independence. We also understand that meal times are an important part of our life function, and a great opportunity for children to learn about the importance of taking turns, table etiquette and the enjoyment of social occasions.
Sample Menu
Our menu is healthy, wholesome, nutritious, freshly prepared, well balanced and varied and has been also planned with the unique taste buds of young children in mind. 

Our chef uses unique culinary techniques to ensure that our children primarily enjoy their food but also get all their daily required nutrients in the preparation of the menu. 

Menus need to be fun but also cater for children from various cultural and religious backgrounds and so we acknowledge and seek to promote, celebrate and raise awareness of diversity by including dishes from different cultures in the menu. We encourage our children to celebrate their own culture whilst seeking to promote the understanding of others. Our children are encouraged to enrich their experiences by trying new foods whilst meeting our curriculum requirements.

We also encourage parents to become more involved by sharing recipes

Our menu board will advise you of the menu for the day

We will cater for any special dietary needs that your child may have which should be brought to our attention at enrolment.
