Our chef has over a decade of experience cooking in early education, and still brings love and passion to making nutritious, delicious meals for every child, every day.
We love broadening children’s tastebuds with foods they might refuse at home, such as stir-fried oyster mushrooms, fresh bean shoots and chickpeas. With a little seasoning and a lot of encouragement, children enjoy tasting new foods every day. For fussier eaters, we blend extra vegetables into meals so no child misses out.
A seasonal menu
Our menu is based on research and collaboration with a local paediatric dietitian and Nutrition Australia, along with feedback from our families and children. Menus follow a 4-week rotation across each season, introducing children to different tastes and textures. We cater for dietary requirements including allergies and religious needs.
Little cooks
Children regularly join in cooking experiences, such as growing and cooking their own kale chips or pumpkin soup, or baking damper and orange muffins. They even made a special batch of cookies for our local firefighters!
