Our Menu&nutrition

Our in-house Cook provides a nutritionally balanced menu prepared on our premises each day.

Dandelion ELC offers Breakfast, Morning Tea, Lunch, Afternoon Tea and Late snack. At Dandelion ELC we believe it is important to ensure that parents and Educators work closely together to ensure all children’s dietary requirements are met and up to date such as intolerances, allergies and anaphylaxis and treat this with the utmost caution. We do not allow any food to be brought into the centre for this very reason, and will work closely with you to ensure that your child’s dietary needs are looked after carefully and respectfully.

Our approach to creating healthy, nutritious meals for our children is guided by the following resources:
The Victorian Food Act 1984 (the Act)
Healthy Eating in The National Quality Standards – Nutrition Australia
The Healthy Early Childhood Services Achievement Program
