Meals & Nutrition

Eating is a social time, and important learning happens during mealtimes as children learn new vocabulary and practise skills such as taking turns and sharing.

Educators show enthusiasm for healthy foods, helping children learn to make healthy food choices and understand the importance of nourishing their bodies. Self-help skills are encouraged from the toddler years onwards.

Our Centre respects cultural and medical dietary requirements. Special meals are prepared to meet individual needs and are designed to have a similar appearance to the regular menu meal. While we encourage all children to try foods from every food group, the variety on offer means there is always something for your child to enjoy.
