“For Better or Worse, but never for lunch!” As a youngster, this is what I remember my mother saying to my father (in jest, of course!) But seriously, lunch just wasn’t something she wanted to deal with. Can we blame her? I know when I was in the trenches with my kids, preparing lunch, packing lunch, planning lunch – even thinking about lunch – was enough to put me over the top. Hadn’t we already put in the equivalent of a full day of work before school even started? Didn’t we just clean up breakfast? Now you want me to worry about LUNCH? Not to mention what is for DINNER!
One of the things parents like about our Kindergarten Program is that a hot lunch is included. But it is also available to our Toddlers and Preschoolers. When you receive our welcome package for next fall, have a look at the lunch bunch programs. You can sign up for as many days as you want. If you think your child will no longer be napping, consider the 9-2 program where your child can participate in all the specialty music, French, Sportplay and craft activities. We organize the lunch programs by term so that you can change things as you need to, but at the very least you will know that:
1) Your child will have eaten a variety of vegetables, fruits and a healthy, hearty meal prepared by our cook. Parents of picky eaters are often surprised with the positive influence of peers at the table. It is also a great opportunity to practice manners (our teachers ensure this!)
2) Your child will have had a chance to share a meal with friends and make friends from other classes.
3) Your child will have had more of a chance to play and learn with friends….like a play date!
4) Happy child…..happy parent…..and vice versa!!
If your child has not yet participated in our lunch program and you would like to try it out, just let us know. Our aim is to make life simpler for you!
Until next time…….Leslie
