Snacks

KidHub will provide a nutritious afternoon snack (peanut/tree-nut free) for the following programs:

• After-School
• Early Closure Camps

Parents are responsible for sending both morning and afternoon snacks (peanut/tree-nut free) for their children during the following programs:

• PD Days
• Storm Days
• Spring Break
• Summer Camp

Upcoming snack menus can be viewed on the parent board at the centre.

Lunches

On full days (PD/Storm days, Spring Break Camp & Summer Camp) parents are required to send a peanut/tree-nut free lunch for their child each day. Since we do not have room in our fridges to store the children’s lunch bags, please ensure that lunches that require refrigeration are sent in insulated bags with adequate cooling (e.g. ice packs).

Treats and Special Snacks

KidHub is devoted to teaching and emulating the importance of healthy eating on a regular basis. That being said, we believe that there are certain times when treats and special snacks are appropriate. As such, we will serve limited treats for special rewards or on special occasions such as holiday parties.
