We aim to make mealtimes calm, social, and enjoyable.

Children eat together in the nursery setting, supported by two qualified first aiders, ensuring all welfare requirements are met. 

We offer a flexible approach to lunchtime so families can choose the option that works best for them.

Lunchtime Options

Packed Lunch

Children are welcome to bring a healthy packed lunch from home. We encourage families to follow our healthy eating guidance and avoid items such as fizzy drinks, sweets, or chocolate bars. 

Hot School Meals (From Spring Term)

Starting from Spring term, nursery children can choose to have a hot school meal prepared by our catering team. These meals are chargeable and follow the same high-quality standards as meals provided across the rest of our school.

Menus and pricing are available on our school meals page.

All meals are served in the nursery alongside friends, ensuring a relaxed and familiar environment.

Snacks and Drinks Provided

We provide a variety of snacks to keep children fuelled throughout the day:

Morning Snack

  • Fresh fruit is offered daily

Afternoon Snack

  • Simple, healthy items such as crackers or breadsticks

Milk and Water

  • Milk is available during the day
  • Water is accessible at all times

We are able to cater for dietary needs and allergies—please speak to our Nursery team or school office if your child has any specific requirements.

A Positive Mealtime Experience

Our staff support children to:

  • Try new foods
  • Develop independence (e.g., opening containers, using cutlery)
  • Learn social skills through shared mealtimes
  • Recognise when they are hungry or full

We are committed to creating a nurturing, inclusive and enjoyable mealtime for every child.
