Food & Nutrition at Little Stars Academy
Meals and snacks are an important part of a child’s day at Little Stars Academy Preschool. We aim to make mealtimes comfortable, organized and age-appropriate while helping children build positive daily routines.
Meals & Snacks
Our meal and snack routines are designed to support a comfortable and organized preschool day. Families receive information about what the school provides and what children may bring from home.
Snacks
Little Stars Academy provides two snacks during the day. Families who prefer to send a snack from home should clearly label it with their child’s name and follow the school’s current food and allergy guidelines.
Hot Lunch Program
Little Stars Academy offers a hot lunch program. Meals are prepared in-house, and families receive menu information so they can see what is being served. Please contact the school if your child has a food allergy, dietary restriction or other food-related need.
Packing Lunch From Home
If you send lunch from home, please use durable, reusable containers that your child can open and close when appropriate for their age.
Clearly label the lunch box and containers with your child’s name. Please include any utensils or beverage your child will need during the meal.
Food Allergies & Dietary Needs
Please inform Little Stars Academy about any known food allergies or dietary restrictions before your child attends.
Our team can explain the school’s current food policies and discuss your child’s individual needs with you. Please make sure the school has current and accurate information about your child’s food-related needs.
Introducing New Foods
If you plan to send a food that your child has not eaten before, please introduce it at home first. This allows families to observe how the child responds in a familiar environment.
Please inform Little Stars Academy about any food allergies, dietary restrictions or concerns before sending new food to preschool. If you are unsure whether a particular food is appropriate to bring, contact our team for guidance.
