Healthy Meal Plan For Preschoolers 

Under this programme, participating schools need to follow the food services guidelines. These include:

  • Cutting down fat, sugar and sodium

  • Serving wholegrain, fruit and vegetables

  • Serving healthy set meals

    • These meals incorporate food from the four main food groups – brown rice and wholemeal bread, meat and others, vegetable and fruit. These help pre-schoolers receive the appropriate nutrients necessary for their growing needs.

Participating pre-schools are evaluated by assessors commissioned by HPB. Pre-schools are required to meet the guidelines and can refer to these FAQs for more details. Here is a list of pre-schools who have been accredited.

 

Party foods in pre-schools tend to be indulgent. Are there healthier party foods? Let’s find out what are some available healthier party food & drinks.
