Meal times

At Noddy's we design healthy and nutritious menus for the children so that they can experience a wide range of flavours and textures. We aim for mealtimes to be one of the many highlights of the children’s day at Noddy’s.

The first five years of life are a time of rapid physical growth and change. They are the years when eating behaviours are created that serve as the foundation for future eating patterns. Here at Noddy’s, we feel that children benefit greatly from positive eating experiences supported by our staff.

Our staff join the children for meal times everyday, sharing in conversation and supporting positive eating behaviours, encouraging children to try new foods and enjoy their food. We also positively encourage the children to use a knife and fork, learn table manners and to say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’. 

Breakfast - is available to those children who arrive before 8.20am

Mid morning snack - Around 10.00am - 10:30am each day depending on class

Lunch - Around 12:00 - 12:30pm - The older children tend to eat slightly later

Tea - 4:15pm

We cater for all allergies, vegetarians and religious requirements. All our menus are nut free.

Baby weaning meals & formula milk is provided where required. Support on baby weaning can be provided to parents by the baby room staff & management teams. 

The children's daily meals are uploaded to ParentZone for parents to view each day and weekly menus are displayed on our notice boards.

Please see below an example of our menus.
