Nutrition

Healthy meals are included in our fees. Our cook uses organic ingredients where possible and avoids artificial colours, flavours and preservatives where practical. We can cater for special dietary needs, including gluten, lactose and other allergies.

Proper nutrition in childhood can reinforce lifelong eating habits that contribute to children’s overall well-being and help them to grow up to their full potential and a healthy life. In addition to contributing to the current childhood obesity epidemic, children who do not have healthy diets as young children are likely to continue to make unhealthy choices as teens and adults. We work with whānau and children to understand the basics of child nutrition, avoid common mistakes, make healthy choices, learn about new things, and teach children healthy eating habits.
