At New Shoots Children’s Centres we value the importance of food and nutrition.
New Zealand-grown, locally sourced (where possible), seasonal goodness created by our passionate, experienced chefs using natural, healthy, unprocessed ingredients!
The New Shoots kitchen is at the heart of our early childhood centres because we value the importance of food and nutrition and appreciate our role in establishing healthy eating habits for your tamariki.
We know quality food and a full belly contribute to growth, development, and contentment.
Your tamariki will relish our daily menus which are created by London City and Guild-trained chefs, and monitored and checked by a qualified nutritionist.
Every meal, every day, is well-balanced, nutrient-dense and tasty, with limited gluten and refined sugars.
If your tamariki has any allergies or intolerances to certain foods or food groups, please talk to your Centre Director.
Your child will be eating from daily menus created by London City and Guild trained chefs and monitored and checked by a qualified nutritionist. Every meal, every day, is well-balanced, nutrient-dense and tasty. Not only that, we’ve focused on whole foods and keep a careful eye on our use of additive-free foods to optimise nutrition.

At New Shoots, your child will flourish with deliciously nutritious snacks and meals giving them the energy they need to enjoy each day.
