Young Academics Early Learning Centre

Our delicious new Autumn/Winter menu is now live as part of our commitment to delivering an exceptional nutrition program to all children attending Young Academics’ centres.

Designed by Accredited Practicing Dietitian Michelle Theodosi and her team at The Lifestyle Dietitian, the healthy new menu is tasty, colourful, packed with goodness, created to please young palates, and inspire children to try new foods in a safe, friendly environment.

Here is a sneak peek at the amazing menu the children will be enjoying this week.

In the lead up to implementing our new menu in centre on the 7th March, we have been trialling some of the new recipes. This week was Yogurt Parfait.

Check out the recipe, and make your own at home for a healthy and delicious snack.

We recently partnered with The Lifestyle Dietitian to develop our nutritious in house menus ensuring your children are getting the best nutrition possible.

Over the coming weeks, we will be showcasing some of the items we are adding to our menus in house. This week it is Wholemeal Pasta Bolognese with 'Little Trees'.

It’s one thing getting children to colour in a rainbow, but when it comes to eating one, things can get a little tricky – especially if you’re living with a fussy eater. But eating fruits and vegetables across the colour spectrum isn’t just pretty, it’s also extremely important for your little one’s nutrition, growth and development.

Why? Because each colour group dishes up ‘phytonutrients’, which are naturally occurring chemicals with different health benefits, which means the more colour you can cram onto each plate, the better.

And with less than 4% of us eating the recommended amount of veggies every day, making a conscious effort to ‘eat the rainbow’ is a great place to start.
