Favourite Healthy Recipes

At Deru Creche we consider children’s health and wellbeing as holistic. We believe that physical health is not only related to, but dependent on mental and spiritual health and vice versa, as well as on the health of the whole environment. Food, nutrition, the growing of our own plants, the cooking and preparation of these, form a large part of our curriculum throughout the centre. From the many and varied experiences associated with our gardens, to the high quality, natural and organic food we cook, the children have the opportunity to not only come face to face with nature, life-cycles, weather cycles, and our dependence on healthy food, but also this opens up and stimulates a myriad of learning topics, interests and experiences; e.g:- growth, maths, science, colour, shape, beauty, co operation, resilience, philosophy, family, environmental care and sustainability
