Children with allergies and special diets will be carefully supervised.
We provide all snacks, meals and drinks with the exception of baby formula for children over 1 year.

Children will be encouraged to feed themselves as appropriate for their age and development and will be assisted as required.
Children will never be forced to eat.
Children will be encouraged to help tidy up after snack time.
Cultural and or religious dietary requirements are respected. Parents or carers are requested to provide details of foods eaten (and not eaten) by the child.
