EYFS Food and Drink Policy
Barnardiston Hall Preparatory School EYFS
Food and Drink Policy
Fresh water is available throughout the day in every classroom and in the Dining Hall at lunchtimes. Children are encouraged to drink regularly. At break-times, milk is also made available.
Parents are encouraged to pack a small snack of their choice for their child to eat during the morning break and we promote healthy eating. If a parent does not provide a mid-morning snack, we will offer a piece of fruit or plain biscuit.
Every child has a hot cooked meal at lunchtime followed by a desert or fruit. All children from Class 1 upwards sit together with their teachers. Dietary requirements are closely monitored and, if the hot cooked meal is not suitable, a jacket potato and selection from the salad bar will be made with assistance from the teacher.
All EYFS Children are offered a mid-afternoon drink of water and a further fresh-fruit snack or biscuit snack.
