Lunch box day
At BestStart Beckenham we have a well-established Be School Ready programme to ensure our children get the best start when they leave us and go off to primary school. Along with our daily programme and excursion to local schools we also host lunch box day every Friday for our four-year-old children, as a special privilege. Lunch box day helps prepare our children for the changes and challenges of primary school. We invite our children to bring along a packed lunch box every Friday. Lunch box Friday’s teaches the children about healthy food choices, eating our healthy food first, making the lunch box to last all day and how to open packets and containers by themselves. Also, it helps our Mums and Dads prepare for making lunch boxes every day when their child leaves the centre. The children all really enjoy the special event every week and look forward to their four-birthday knowing they will get to join in too!
