Parents and guardians send their children to school with daily lunches. The school provides snacks for the children consisting of fresh fruits or vegetables, whole wheat bread, crackers, granola, chips made from quinoa, corn, beans, or veggies, and protein-rich options like yogurt, cheese, or hummus. We prioritize healthy choices and aim to purchase non-GMO, organic, or natural foods whenever possible.
Our Montessori Curriculum includes food preparation activities in each classroom, such as making orange juice or lemonade, brewing tea, cutting bread, bananas, and apples, cracking nuts, and baking and cooking activities. Our students learn to make a variety of recipes, some of which feature seasonal fruits, herbs, or vegetables grown in our school garden.
Gardening
At our organization, we hold a deep conviction regarding the significance of educating youngsters about the origins of food. To accomplish this, we collaborate with nearby farmers to pay them a visit and acquire fresh produce.
Additionally, we endeavor to cultivate some of the vegetables, herbs, and fruits that the children consume at school, and we involve them in every step of the process.
