Healthy eating

The meals we provide at the Covey are nutritionally balanced and come from a company called Apetito. The Menu is prepared on a seven week rotation and every Parent will get a copy of the menu. If there is ever a change to the menu, it will be displayed on the front door, so you can see as you arrive. All special diets i.e. culture, religion, vegetarians and allergies are catered for. The meals are adapted to suit the age or ability of a child if necessary (babies etc). All mealtimes are supervised by the correct ratio of staff.

Drinks are provided throughout the day.

Lunch is served at 11.30am and Tea at 3.45pm

Snacks and refreshments are provided throughout the day. The children have the option of Milk or Water to drink (Heinz Baby Juice provided for under 1's) and a range of snacks e.g. fresh and dried fruit, raw vegetables, cheese and crackers etc.

Babies - to ensure preparations of milk are
prepared accurately to your child's individual
needs, the Nursery asks the Parents to prepare
your child's bottled milk, bringing significant bottles each time in attendance. Your child's Nursery Nurse will ensure all equipment is washed and returned on a daily basis. Please label all bottles.

Toddlers - children who enjoy puree/mashed foods will be encouraged to enjoy a cooked lunch. However, should Parents wish to use 'jars or baby/toddler food' from home, please ensure your child's food is given to his/her Nursery Nurse. Please label all jars.
