We provide a selection of nutritious food and and help the children to develop healthy eating habits along with good听table manners.
Mealtimes
Lunchtimes are a social, relaxed and unhurried time and听the children are encouraged to actively participate at all meal times by helping to lay the table for their meal and听serving听themselves. In this way we听foster听the children's independence by听allowing them to choose their own听food and听portion size.听
The UCL Day Nursery employs a full-time qualified chef and menus are displayed on the parents鈥� noticeboard. We provide a nutritious and well balanced diet and always offer a vegetarian alternative and halal meat on听request.
A hot lunch is served at around 11.30am and the children have tea听between 3.30 and 4.00pm.听Fresh fruit is provided at both lunch and tea time and water is available throughout the day.听
Baby unit meals
Both lunch and tea is only optional in the baby unit and听parents may choose for their baby to have either or both meals.听Alternatively, parents may provide their own food but it must be suitable for re-heating and contained in a clearly labelled microwaveable container or lunchbox. We听ask that all babies are fully weaned on to a large selection of food on our menu before they are offered Nursery meals.
Meal charges
Meal charges are paid as part of the overall monthly fees and cannot be changed to reflect your child鈥檚 actual attendance in a month.听If you wish to change the meal arrangements for your child, please speak to听the Nursery manager.听
