Healthy eating
We understand the importance of promoting healthy eating at an early age. We provide freshly-prepared meals that are both varied and nutritionally balanced. We limit sugary items and do not have crisps, sweets or fizzy drinks in the nursery. Our qualified Chef, uses fresh produce wherever possible, and incorporates a wide range of fresh fruit and vegetables in their cooking. Vegetarian diets are catered for and our chef works carefully with parents whose children have individual dietary needs.
A hot lunch is served comprising of a main course . In the afternoon, tea consists of sandwiches or other savoury item and fruit. Snacks of fruit and rusks are also served in the morning.
