Our Nursery Menu

At our nursery, mealtimes are an important part of the day and are valued as both a social experience and a learning opportunity. Our menu is carefully planned to provide nutritious, well-balanced meals that support children’s growth and development, with freshly prepared food from a variety of food groups to encourage healthy eating habits and an enjoyment of different tastes and textures. We follow a rolling menu, which is displayed for families to view, and we cater for individual dietary requirements and allergies to ensure every child’s needs are met safely. Mealtimes are calm and relaxed, with practitioners sitting alongside the children to encourage positive behaviour, conversation, and good manners.

Children are supported to develop independence by taking part in setting the table, such as placing plates, cups, cutlery, and placemats, as well as learning about hygiene routines like handwashing before meals and helping to clear their place afterwards. Where appropriate, children are encouraged to serve themselves, helping them to make choices and build confidence, responsibility, and important life skills as part of their daily nursery experience.
