    Nutrition Campaign

    We believe it is very important for children to have something nourishing to eat at snack time, as well as at lunch, so we request you to pack healthy balanced snack and lunch if your child is enrolled in morning programme and an additional mid-afternoon snack/tea if they continue in the afternoon programme.

    It is also important for children to enjoy and eat their meals in a community setting with friends in their bubbles and we are in store for their wonderful experience.

    A well-balanced diet is vital to a child’s health, and what they eat influences their mood, behaviour, level of concentration, and most importantly their physical and mental development.
