Our Menu

Our Service recognises the importance of healthy eating to promote the growth and development of young children and is committed to supporting the healthy food and drink choices of children in our care.

Along with consultation with families and staff, the service cook develops a 2 week rotational menu that incorporates fresh seasonal produce and meets nutritional requirements as set by the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating and the Dietary Guidelines for Children and Adolescents.

Our service works closely with families who have additional dietary requirements/restrictions to ensure that every child in our service has their needs met.

Below is a sample menu of what the service provides.
