Meals – Healthy Eating

Little Sparkles ELC provides fresh, nutritious meals and snacks for children throughout the day. Meals are prepared in our on-site kitchen by our qualified cook, ensuring children enjoy wholesome, balanced food as part of their daily early learning experience.

We support the NSW Health Munch & Move program, which promotes healthy development in young children through healthy eating, physical activity and reduced small-screen time.

Encouraging Healthy Habits

Early childhood is an important time for developing healthy eating and active lifestyle habits. Children are encouraged to explore a variety of nutritious foods, make healthy choices and understand the importance of eating well and staying active.

Our approach supports key Munch & Move messages, including eating more fruit and vegetables, choosing healthier snacks, drinking water and being physically active every day.

Healthy habits are incorporated into everyday experiences through nutritious meals, active play and age-appropriate learning opportunities. By building a positive relationship with food and physical activity from an early age, children can develop healthy habits that support their growth, wellbeing and development.

Nutritious food, active play and healthy choices help provide a strong foundation for lifelong wellbeing.
