Health & Nutrition
Growing minds and active bodies need the right nutrition to fuel the development and growth of children. At O’Briens Montessori Centre we have a Chef that provides the children with healthy and nutritious meals throughout the day.
Each day, children are provided with breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack. The times of these meals vary for each classroom and the individual needs of the children.
O’Briens Montessori Centre is a nut aware Centre.
We encourage a balanced diet for children. Please see the image below of the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating.
