Our Gold Healthy Heart Award renewal
Today Hearty came to visit us and give us our Pa-Harakeke Award after all the hard work that Roseanne our amazing cook has done to achieve our renewal.
Over the past 12/24 months, we have worked hard to ensure that all our Tamariki have food that is high in fiber, vegetables, fruit, protein, and dairy and low in salt, sugar, fat, and preservatives.
All our meals here at BestStart Pukautua are prepared on-site daily with fresh wholemeal natural ingredients.
Our meals are approved and encouraged by the Heart Foundation and today we were rewarded with this amazing award.
We also won an award for the best red foods on a red day and were gifted a rosemary and a fejoa tree.
We take the health of our Tamariki seriously and feel proud to hold the highest Pa-Harakeke gold award for our centre.
We also provide experiences for our Tamariki that include physical activities, and games to encourage the understanding of fruit and vegetables, what they can be used for, and why we need them to be healthy.
At BestStart Pukautua we are sitting alongside the Best Start Values of Wellbeing, (Mana Atua) and Quality learning (Te Kounga o te ako).Please feel free to pop in at any time and see the incredible work we are doing with our Tamariki to keep themselves Healthy.
