Awards 2012: Initiatives - Nursery food award

Health Provision Nutrition
Winner - Snapdragons Nursery, Weston, Bath

The judges were hugely impressed by the way Snapdragons Nursery has transformed its food provision in the past five months under the guidance of its nutrition manager.

Having adopted the new School Food Trust nutrition guidance, Snapdragons now has a comprehensive healthy eating policy that highlights how good food provision is formalised and communicated to staff and parents. From the kitchen to the nursery rooms, all staff are engaged in good food provision and education. Tasty dishes are prepared by the nursery's dedicated chefs and staff eat with their key children - providing role modelling for eating. Mealtimes are social and calm, and older children serve themselves.
