At Playschool
Nursery, we understand how important it is
to establish good healthy eating practices at a
very young age. We believe in providing highly nutritious
good quality meals, not only for your child's health
and physical wellbeing, but also to develop their
taste buds and social skills involving food.
Educating your child's palette
All our meals are prepared
onsite by our qualified cooks. We are currently working
towards our Healthy Eating Award for under 5's. Our
menu is varied and we use fresh produce where we can,
and use only ingredients of the highest quality, with
every effort made to ensure low sodium and low sugar
content.
Whether a baby or in Pre-school, we will provide your
child with all the nutrients they need in delicious
meals served in a stimulating environment. We have designed
our menus to consider all the different stages of your
child's development, ensuring your child gets all their
daily nutritional needs.
Our children sit and eat together. They learn the necessary
skills for social eating, how to use cutlery, share
food, and are encouraged to try new things. Our staff
participate during mealtimes by talking with the children,
helping them to differentiate between healthy and not
so healthy foods.
As well as main meals, we provide snacks of fresh fruit
and vegetable. By becoming involved, the children are
more likely to taste new foods, and quickly begin to
recognise different fruit and vegetables.
At Playschool Nursery,
we believe that mealtimes should be social, happy times,
where skills can be developed, and good food enjoyed.
