At Cornubia Park Early Learning we offer very a well-thought-out nutritional menu. Rebecca who is our naturopath, nutritionist and approved provider envisioned a wholesome, organic way of living her ethos is to support children’s overall health and wellbeing on a holistic level. Since 2010 Rebecca has provided fine-tuned, monthly, menu’s to various centres around Queensland, she has now dedicated herself to providing the most nutritious meals to the children of Cornubia Park Early Learning. Our Chef, Miss Denise, has extensive experience in restaurants and has refined her skill in past childcare Centre’s to ensure she is providing the absolute best meals. Denise has fallen in love with Cornubia Park and will be providing luscious, healthy and nutritionally balanced meals.

Our special interest is in children’s health supports our mission in providing a rich learning environment.  We believe that children need to be inspired and encouraged to eat good food from a young age.  Food has been connected very securely to behaviour and learning management.  We therefore feel that if we can supply the children in our care with wonderful, tasty, healthy food it can only have very positive outcomes.

With our Kindy Kitchen we aim to make a real difference in the quality of our children’s lives.  This extends to the environment around us.  Our values include:

  • Selecting locally grown produce to reduce ‘food miles’
  • Using fresh, minimally processed and minimally packaged foods
  • Using organic foods as a priority but not a necessity
  • Incorporating sustainable protein sources such as beans, lentils and chickpeas
  • Choosing sustainable seafood (marineconservation.org.au)
  • Choosing to use no artificial anything – including colours, flavours and preservatives
  • Conserving water in food preparation
  • Using environmentally sustainable and safe tableware
  • Raising awareness amongst children and parents of the importance of eating healthily and consciously, especially in the younger years as this is where food habits are formed for life.
