Lunch Boxes
Government recommendations on healthy eating for Early Years are that sweet treats should be limited and not consumed in excess. Can we please ask that only one sweet treat is given in your child’s lunchbox i.e. biscuit/kitkat/cake etc and that all food items are cut up appropriately to avoid them becoming a choking risk.Here is a link to the recommendations:
Please NO nuts/nut products or sesame seeds should be brought into pre-school. Could parents please write your child’s name INSIDE and OUTSIDE of their lunch box/bag as we have a few that are the same and lastly please ensure all children bring in with them a drink of water in a named sports style bottle. Many thanks for your continued support.
