Food Services and Nutrition
Our food is fresh, wholesome and balanced.
The school operates as a cashless campus, and parents will be able to update their child’s payment card online and select various meal plans. The designated dining areas are supervised, hygienic and safe. Children have access to regular drinks and food in adequate quantities for their needs.
Nutrition is a significant factor in the growth, development and overall functioning of a child. Good nutrition provides the energy and nutrients essential to sustain life and promotes physical, emotional and cognitive development. The development of healthy eating practices and physical activity can prevent disease and support a lifetime of good health. Good nutrition is critical to optimizing each child’s potential for success.
We have also provided a coffee area for parents, where they can meet and talk!
If you are sending a lunchbox for your child, you must ensure that it consists of healthy and nutritious snacks. A healthy lunch keeps active kids alert and focused and gives them the nutrition they need every day. But no matter how healthy your child’s lunch box is, it won’t provide any nutritional value if it doesn’t get eaten.
