Healthy Lifestyle

We promote healthy eating, good nutrition and physical activities behaviours in children.

We believe that healthy eating habits start early in life, and we are committed to helping your child develop a love for nutritious food. 

HealthY LIFESTYLE

Good nutrition and healthy movements are paramount of our program. Our children receive yearly visits from our local speech pathologist.

Amigoss has a SunSmart policy, which addresses 10 key areas of sun protection across the 3 key areas of environment, behaviour, and information. Some of these areas are: scheduling outdoor activities outside of peak UV times, using shade, wearing sun smart hats, or applying at least SPF 30 (or higher) broad-spectrum water-resistant sunscreen, and re-applying every 2 hours.

NUTRITION

 

At our childcare, we understand the importance of providing nutritious and delicious meals for our little ones. That’s why we offer a variety of healthy options.

Poor diet and physical inactivity are major contributors to obesity, and the early childhood years are an important
period for developing healthy food preferences and motor skills.  The first five years represents the most decisive phase of a child’s life. Every experience influences their future learning and their future self.

All our menus are assessed against the recommendations of the “Nutrition Checklist for Long Day Care Menu Planning” outlined in the NSW Health “Caring for Children – Food, Nutrition and Learning Experiences” child care nutrition resource and incorporates the revised Australian Dietary Guidelines released in 2013. This checklist ensures that
menus offer children a minimum of 50% of their Recommended Daily Intakes of nutrients while at childcare.

Our menus are elaborated in collaboration with children, educators and parents and certified by NSW Health: Munch & Move. 

Our menu

 

We are happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions or preferences your child may have. Please let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.

In Amigoss we like to offer the children a seasonal menu that takes advantage of the freshest ingredients available throughout the year. That’s why we have two different menus that rotate with the changing seasons.

During the fall and winter months, we have a menu full of warm and comforting dishes. When spring and summer arrive, our menu takes on a lighter and fresher feel. We focus on fresh produce and bright flavors that complement the warmer weather.

This is a sample of our weekly menu.
