We lovingly plan and prepare ever meal in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage EYFS nutrition guidance, ensuring your child enjoys food that’s healthy, balanced and perfect for their growing needs, and helping them develop healthy eating habits from the very start.
Mealtimes at Our Nursery
Mealtimes are a valued and enjoyable part of each child’s day. We believe that sitting together to eat is not only about nourishment, but also about building social skills, sharing conversations, and developing independence.
We encourage all children to take part in our self-serve approach during every meal and snack time, helping them to make choices and learn important life skills.
Morning session:
Breakfast is available until 8:30am, followed by a healthy mid-morning snack, and a freshly prepared, home-cooked lunch served around 11:30am.
Afternoon session:
Children enjoy a healthy afternoon tea option to keep them energised and happy.
Our aim is to make mealtimes relaxed, sociable, and a positive learning experience for every child.
Fresh drinking water is available throughout the day for the children which is provided using water stations ensuring that water is fresh and accessible for the children.
All our children are provided with a free daily serving of 189ml (1/3 pint) of milk through the Nursery Milk Scheme.
