Meals

We aim to promote healthy living and will incorporate this into activity planning as well as snack and meal times. We often prepare and cook our snacks with the children, enjoying a range of homemade bread, cakes and biscuits along with a variety of fruit and vegetables. Activities are planned regularly to assist in introducing children to new and varied flavours and textures and to support and develop an awareness of their own bodies, healthy eating and food from other countries and cultures. 
Fresh drinking water is available at all times and children are encouraged to help themselves.

Meal times:
Breakfast:      Cereal, toast, porridge, baby rice, fruit, milk, water & juice

AM snack:      A selection of fruit/vegetables, breadstick/toast/biscuit, etc

Lunch:              A hot lunch prepared daily by our catering company*

PM snack:      A selection of fruit/vegetables, breadstick/toast/biscuit, etc

Tea:                    A light finger-food tea

Weaning & younger children:
While most of the children within the setting will eat the snacks and meals provided onsite and by Zebedees, we can accommodate all stages of feeding from milk feeds to weaning on to solid food. For younger children we are able to provide Ella’s Kitchen pouches and jars, on request.
