Meals
Our qualified cooks make meals daily on the premises. Drinks are available at all times. There are three meals served throughout the day: breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. All meals are well balanced and have been devised after consultation with a nutritionist. Any special dietary requirements can also be catered for and cultural/religious needs are taken into account. Our staff sit with the children to promote social meal times. The menu is varied to encourage children to try different foods and broaden their tastes. A sample menu is detailed below and we are pleased to report that we match ‘Jamie’s Dinners’ recommendations. Our cooks are always open to suggestions from parents regarding healthy, favourite meals for the children and also produce recipe booklets for parents with popular meals.
