Healthy Eating Choices at Riverhead Preschool

At Riverhead Preschool, mealtimes are an important part of the day, helping children develop healthy habits, independence and social skills in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

​

Parents provide their child’s lunch and snack, while we provide fresh drinking water and milk throughout the day.

 

Children are encouraged to make healthy choices, try new foods, use utensils and become increasingly independent. Mealtimes also provide opportunities to chat, build friendships and develop confidence and responsibility.

 

We work closely with families to support positive, healthy eating habits and each child’s wellbeing.
