Healthy eating
We believe that mealtimes should be enjoyable opportunities for children to develop healthy habits and independence. Our menus aim to provide children with a balanced range of foods and introduce them to different tastes and textures.
Mealtimes are learning opportunities
Children can develop:
-
Independence
-
Communication
-
Social skills
-
Fine motor skills
-
Understanding of healthy choices
We encourage children to develop positive relationships with food in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Allergies and dietary requirements
We work with families to understand children’s dietary requirements and allergies.
Individual requirements are communicated clearly to relevant staff and appropriate procedures are followed to help keep children safe.
Babies and weaning
We work with parents to support individual feeding routines and children’s stages of development. Please speak to our team about your child’s individual requirements.
