Snacks and Hot Lunches

Broadstone Christian Nursery provide freshly prepared Snacks and Hot Lunches supplied by CaterFirst who use local ingredients. The menu is changed monthly ensuring children get to try new and exciting dishes.

Practitioners and children enjoy the meals together which promotes table manners and the independent use of knives and forks.

The children visit and attend to the allotment where some of the food they eat is grown.

Here is a typical monthly menu:

	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday
AM	Low fat hummus with carrot and cucumber sticks and mini wraps	Bread sticks and baby tomatoes	Bagels and cream cheese and cucumber	Crackers, cheese and grapes	Toast with butter, marmite or honey
PM	Apple, cheese and crackers	Jelly and fruit	Fruit salad (blackberries, pineapple, mango, raspberries, kiwi) Depending on season	Fruit loaf	Rice cakes with bananas
