At Twiglets Nursery, the only things that we charge you for is a hot lunch and additional hours if your child is funded and they attend over their funded hours. We do not charge for consumables such as nappies and wipes but we ask that parents provide these for their child each day they attend nursery.
We do try to encourage parents to order their child a hot lunch as we believe this benefits the children but this not compulsory and you may provide a packed lunch if you wish to. Below if a link to the Autumn/Winter Menu provided for by NutriFresh
Our food is supplied by NutriFresh. Food is cooked off site each day and delivered to us ready to serve at lunchtime. Below is the menu for Autumn/Winter.
