Caring for your child’s health
The health, safety and wellbeing of our children is fundamental. Our team take care to provide opportunities for your child to grow socially, emotionally, intellectually, physically, creatively and holistically.
Meals & Nutrition
Good nutrition is important to growing bodies and meeting developmental milestones.
At Pelican’s Nest, your child will enjoy a variety of nourishing meals, developed in accordance with Nutrition Australia’s policy guidelines that meet at least half of your child’s daily nutritional requirements.
All of our meals are fresh and cooked on-site by our school’s qualified chef – We offer Paddock to Plate meals wherever possible, to offer education on the food kids are eating, and where it comes from. Menus are developed seasonally and included in our daily fee.
Daily meals:
- Morning tea

- Afternoon tea
- Healthy snacks
- Grazing platters of delicious meats and fruits to assist children in trying new things.
