Food and Nutrition at Camperdown Nursery
Food and mealtimes are more than just a part of the daily routine.
At Camperdown Nursery, mealtimes are more than just a routine — they’re a chance to learn, build independence, and develop healthy lifelong habits.
We follow Setting the Table and national guidance to provide fresh, nutritious meals and snacks each day, made with natural ingredients and designed to support a balanced diet. Children enjoy morning snack, lunch (provided by a specialist children’s caterer) and afternoon snack.
At Camperdown, food is not just fuel — it’s an opportunity for connection, learning, and wellbeing.
Mealtimes are calm and sociable, with tables thoughtfully set to create a warm, family-style dining experience. Children are encouraged to pour their own drinks, serve themselves when ready, and practice good manners, all while building confidence and independence.
We are fully committed to meeting all dietary requirements, including allergies, religious or cultural needs, and preferences, with substitute meals that mirror the main menu as closely as possible.
Food is also a way we celebrate, whether it’s a birthday, a cultural festival, or a special occasion, we love bringing meaning to mealtimes through shared experiences.
