Spring / Summer Menu

Our Spring /Summer menu has launched. Watch the video below to find out more.

We take pride in our food credentials and what we serve children in nursery. All of our nursery menus are nutritionally balanced, paying special attention to reducing salt and sugar.

We're constantly evolving the way we create our menus, and we regularly take on board feedback from children, parents, and staff in order to help us develop dishes that meet the needs of all of the children in our care. Our menus often include many childhood favourites with an added healthy twist, ensuring children receive the correct nutritional balance they need, without even realising it!. We like to support and encourage eating well within the nursery but also at home - why not try some of our delicious recipes with your child, or read our tips and advice on promoting healthy eating habits.

Our nursery meals and menus and recipes are carefully examined and externally accredited by nutritionists at NHS Startwell read more about them here.
