Healthy Eating
Littleleaps understands the importance of healthy eating.
It is important that children receive all the nutrients they need to grow and develop.
A balances diet provides essential nutrients and healthy fats needed for strong bones, teeth, muscles and brain function.
Our meal routine ensures that children are offered a variety of nutritious foods which help to shape lifelong preferences.
Nutritious meals support better attention, memory and problem-solving abilities.

Nursery Hot Lunch
Our nursery lunches are nutritious homemade meals.
Nursery lunch is a main course with either a starter or dessert.
They are cooked from fresh daily at our sister nursery 'Littleleaps' and transported here in time for a 12pm lunch! Nursery Hot Lunch can be added to your child's day.

If you don't wish to make the most of the nursery prepared hot meals your child is more than welcome to bring in a packed lunch from home.
