Did you know: Meals
There is more vitamin C in a Bell Pepper than there is in an Orange and some children really love the taste. Ideal for a healthy play time snack.
Food has such a central role in our lives that it is important to start good food habits as soon as possible. With a world of colours, smells, textures and tastes a good variety of food provides not only good and essential nutrition, but experiences for all the senses.
Dining together is also a great social activity and children dine together in their age group rooms. We continually promote feeding skills and good table manners.
We use locally grown produce wherever possible delivered fresh to our door and we prepare on the premises.
