Our Nutrition & Healthy Meals

Here at Pine Mountain Road Child Care, as part of our nutrition, we supply the children with morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea that is cooked on the premises daily by our cook. In conjunction with the children’s likes, as well as educators and family input, the centre cook has created a multicultural five-week rotating menu that is designed to exceed the national guidelines for children whilst in our care.

The Australian Dietary Guidelines, Infant Feeding Guidelines, Get Up and Grow: Healthy Eating and Physical Activity for Early Childhood and the Health Eating Pyramid are used as guides throughout our menus to ensure that our nutrition here at the centre is up to date with new developments in regard to children’s health and wellbeing.
