Our Menu
Food is so important at St Margaret’s Nursery & Pre-school, It’s fuel for energy and growth, but also important in social interaction and learning about your own and different cultures.
We have a 3 week rolling menu which changes seasonally. Our menu was created in consultation with one of our parents who is an NHS nutritionist at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children & Young People. We used the knowledge and experience from our parent along with the Early Years documents: Food Matters & Setting the Table.
We always include feedback from the most important critics, our children! The children often express their likes and dislikes with staff by conversations, surveys and during circle time. We incorporate the feedback from the children to amend our menus to keep them fresh and exciting.
