From the Kitchen
Each day the children are provided with nutritionally balanced, and delicious meals and snacks. Our cook is trained in the areas of nutrition, menu planning, food handling and hygiene.
Food preparation is not confined to the kitchen, and room programs are designed to encourage children to participate in cooking a variety of snacks, and meals. These are used to reinforce nutrition and healthy eating.
If your child has specific food requirements, we invite you to speak to our cook, who will work with you to meet the needs of your child.
Recipes for favourite dishes are always available.
