Child and Day Care Centre | Preschool | LeapingLearners.com.au

Our aim is to provide our children with a balanced and nutritional diet that meets 50% of their recommended daily intakes by introducing a variety of foods from the Core Food Groups (breads, cereals, dairy, meat and meat alternatives, fruits and vegetables).

Our Menu is on display in the front foyer and the kitchen for families to view at any time. Our qualified, dedicated and experienced cook will prepare nutritious daily meals following the balanced dietary guidelines. Food preparation, serving and handling will be managed in accordance with Safe Food Handling Practices and relevant staff have completed the necessary training and qualifications on food handling/hygiene, food preparation, menu planning and nutrition to ensure this is complied with.

We advocate that meal times are an enjoyable event for the children we encourage healthy eating attitudes for the children.
