OUR FOOD


Our nursery catering is supplied by Slice of Pie.  Their food is freshly cooked and delivered to us daily. Slice of Pie specialise in catering only for nurseries and preschools and their attention to the nutritional requirements of young children is second to none.  They believe in providing a broad range of flavours and ingredients and incorporate regional specialities in their menus, alongside traditional British favourites.

Slice of Pie take great pride in providing for any special dietary requirements and allergies and carefully scrutinise all of their ingredients for any allergens.  From their website:

"At Slice of Pie, we believe we are experts in our field of providing exciting nutritious and well-balanced food for nursery-aged children. Moreover, the industry recognises this as well by awarding our chef national awards (NMT 2012 and Nursery World 2011 and 2013) for the food that is produced for our nurseries.

We strongly believe that introducing a wide range of locally produced or organic ingredients and tastes at an early stage perfectly lays down the foundations for a lifelong love of healthy and varied foods."

This attention to detail, along with their Food Hygiene rating of 5, means we have absolute confidence in the safety and high standards of the food they provide for us.

Healthy Snacks
We offer our children healthy snacks in the morning and afternoon.  This might include fruit, vegetables, bread sticks, cheese, fruit loaf, low sugar biscuits or crumpets, for example.  We encourage and guide the children to select and serve their own snack, and discuss with them the importance of making healthy choices and sensible portion sizes.  The children love the independence and responsibility this gives them, which in turn increases their confidence and self esteem.  We offer water or milk to drink and help the children learn to pour their drinks themselves.
