Food

We understand the importance of giving children well balanced, nutritious, and healthy meals. Our meals are cooked and prepared by TwoTeaspoons, who specialise in cooking children’s meals for each season.

All our dishes are made to the early years meal planning guidelines and they provide at least five portions of fruit and vegetables each day to encourage children to adopt healthy habits. In colder weather, thick soups and stews are a favourite and we may even cook some food around the campfire, such as banana pancakes and hot chocolate! In Summer extra cool water is available and healthy, homemade ice lollies.

As our children will be active we have plenty of food each day and children are offered seconds. Each day on our nursery app our team will update you to share how much food they have eaten.
