Wholesome meals to promote healthy eating

A.C.E Child Care Centre provides freshly made nutritious and delicious meals for all our children. Meals are made daily on the premises. Our menus are inspired by fresh seasonal produce, children's requests and vegetables that we grow at the centre. The menu reflects a range of cultures by providing foods from other countries regularly on the menu.

​A variety of foods is provided on a daily basis with emphasis placed on providing foods from the five basic food groups. All meals and drinks are provided meeting the daily nutritional needs of the children.

​The menu is planned weekly and put on display on the noticeboard. 

​Our meals each day include breakfast, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea. 

All meals are served family style with an emphasis on encouraging children's independence in eating, such as using utensils and practicing table manners. 

​Exposing children to a nutritional diet is crucial for healthy physical growth, emotional development and a positive outlook on life. Therefore we model, promote and program for healthy food and provide nutritious cooking experiences throughout the curriculum. 

A.C.E Child Care Centre implements a Food Safety Program and all staff are trained in food safety to ensure that a high standard of food safety is maintained within the child care centre.
