Joyce, our fully qualified cook, works closely with staff and parents so that individual children's’ dietary requirements can be catered for. All meals are freshly prepared and home baking is offered. Children are participate in laying the tables and preparing snacks, serving themselves at mealtimes under supervision. They are encouraged to sample a wide range of different foods, the aim being, even at this early age, to encourage them in life-long patterns of healthy eating.

Meals are prepared in accordance with the nutritional guidelines laid down by the Scottish Executive in ‘Nutritional guidance for early Years – food choices for children aged 1-5’.
