At Fenton Barns Nursery we believe that mealtimes should be happy, social occasions for children and staff alike. We promote shared, enjoyable positive interactions at these times.
We are committed to offering children healthy, nutritious and balanced meals and snacks which meet individual needs and requirements.
We are very fortunate to have our own in-house chef, Nicola Malley.
Nicola cooks all the children’s meals using locally produced products from Anderson’s Butchers, Dickson’s and Roots and Fruits where supply meets our requirements.
We also provide all snacks throughout the day which are filling and nutritious in line with our vision and ethos of always promoting healthy living.
