We regularly discuss healthy choices with the children, by displaying a tray filled with healthy and unhealthy snacks and drinks and asking children to sort them.

Perhaps you could continue this at home and have a game with your child.

Healthy Drinks

In Seashell's we provide every funded child with a water bottle. Children in The Pups room who are not funded, we encourage children to drink from a cup. However, if your child is needing support with this and prefers a bottle, you may send one in.  However, we request that only water be placed in the bottles, not juice, fruit juice, milk, milkshakes, fizzy drinks - as the children are drinking from them throughout the day, meaning that the sugar from these drinks will sit on their teeth.

We replenish the bottles with fresh water throughout the day as required.

We continue to offer fresh water throughout the day, and offer milk at breakfast club, snack and lunch times.

Thank you for your understanding and co-operation with this.

At Seashells Nursery we actively encourage Healthy Eating, offering a wide selection of healthy and nutritious foods during snack time.

At lunch time we have fresh local produced being delivered all ready and cooked for the Children to have a hot lunch each day. This is provided by The Tavern. If your child is entitled to the 30 hours of funding, then the hot meal will be provided at no extra cost.

Don't get the funding? That is ok, you can pay an additional cost each day and also stay for lunch with us.
