In collaboration with our  in-house chefs, Nutritional Ambassador, Dr Lauren Burns, an Olympic gold medallist & leading nutritionist who shares the centre’s passion for building healthy eating habits for life, has developed a fresh, seasonally influenced and nutritionally balanced menu that tastes great and enhances wellbeing. All food is cooked on site daily and is adjusted for individual dietary requirements. It’s not only healthy, it’s food they’ll love to eat.

Children are offered progressive meals which demonstrate respect for children's choices, offering them the flexibility to decide when to join the table for their meal.
