Our program provides high quality, nutritionally balanced meals to children while they are attending the center, Combo and Home based socializations. The food program is funded in part by the Federal Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). All meals are served Family Style. The children help set the table and serve themselves when age allows. This helps to develop personal responsibility. The teachers/caregiver eats with the children and model appropriate behaviour, self-sufficiency and manners. |
