Healthy Snacks

At Ashworth Nursery School we enjoy a range of healthy snacks.  Examples include:

Snack

• Milk and water for all drinks
• Fruits and vegetables e.g. apples, bananas, pears, oranges, melon, strawberries, pineapple, peaches, nectarines, plums, kiwis, avocado, carrots, cucumber, celery, peas, potatoes etc.
• Wholemeal toast and crumpets
• Bread sticks, pita or chapattis and hummus/cheese/cucumber
• Cheese and crackers

Snack time is an opportunity to develop social skills around mealtimes.

School fund is £2 for each session your child attends, which can be paid to the school office. This pays for the daily snack for the children and contributes to extra treats such as

• Christmas presents
• Easter Eggs
• Baking
• Class parties and celebrating birthdays
• Visits from outside companies

Healthy Schools

We are committed to support our families in achieving the very best outcomes for healthy lifestyles.

We follow ‘Smile4life’ and as such provide foods during snack-time which will promote healthy bodies and teeth. We respectfully request that children do not bring sweets, chocolate fizzy drinks or chewing gum to school in their packed lunches.
