Food and Drink

Our nurseries provides a well- balanced, nutritional menu for the children which are on a 4 weekly rota system ensuring the children get a wide range of variety to different styles of foods and meals from all kinds of origin.

Our trained cook does the weekly shopping ensuring that only the best fresh fruit and vegetables are handpicked from a local green grocer for the meals. We also buy our potatoes and fresh eggs from a local farm shop ensuring a higher quality of product for the children. All the meat is ordered fresh, and delivered to the door from a local butcher.

Every meal is freshly prepared on site in our designated catering area which has been awarded a 5 star hygiene rating.

All breads and pastries are made from scratch so the salt & sugar content is less for the children. For the younger babies an alternative meal that is suitable for them is provided. We can cater for special dietary requirements and needs which you can discuss with the manager on your visit.

Our menus are reviewed every 6 months with the team, the cook and the parents’ involvement.
Drinks and snacks are available throughout the day in all rooms; however we do have a set period in the morning and in the afternoon when we encourage children to take part in snack. Milk is served at Breakfast and with snack during the day.

All children (except the very young) are encouraged to serve and feed themselves at meal times. Hygiene practices are implemented where all staff and children that are serving meals or snacks will wash their hands before and after handling food as well as wearing disposable aprons and gloves.
