At Marleigh, we prioritise the health and well-being of our children. That’s why our chef, Christos, prepares nutritious, fresh meals on site each day. These meals are free from salt and sugar as well as Christos accommodating to any dietary preferences or allergies. We offer three meals a day at Marleigh which are breakfast, hot lunch and tea alongside snacks
Our menu changes with each session, ensuring a wide range of foods. We follow a 4-week rotation, incorporating various cultural cuisines to expose children to different textures and tastes as well as creating a home from home environment
Additionally, we provide different vegetable options as side dishes, giving the children choices to complement their meals. To promote independence and responsibility, children also serve their own meals and scrape their own plates. We find that involving children in the meal process, they feel a greater sense of control and enjoy their food which often leads to having a second serving
Adults also dine alongside children to encourage healthy eating habits. This not only provides a role model for healthy eating but also creates social experiences!
