Food and Nutrition
Eating a healthy, balanced diet is one of the most important parts of living a healthy lifestyle. At Wood Wharf Kindergarten, we adopt a nutritious menu that offers a balanced mix of dishes.
Our chefs prepare fresh meals and snacks in our kitchens every day. We also offer cookery classes, which help to teach children about food preparation and nutrition.
Our expertly planned daily menus, including a minimum of five portions of fruit and veg, aim to ensure that we deliver a balanced menu that supports every child's growth and development.
We serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus morning and afternoon snacks.

Outdoor Learning
We are the only nursery in Canary Wharf with our very own garden. Our garden is currently under construction and will be opening in Summer 2024! We are very excited.
Outdoor learning and play are essential to child development, which is why at Wood Wharf Kindergarten, all children spend time outside every day.
Our safe and secure outdoor area is designed to spark children’s creativity and encourage physical development, with activities such as climbing, balancing, riding, playing ball games and completing obstacle courses.
The outdoor area also includes a vegetable patch where children can learn about growing their own food and caring for the environment.
We also learn outside the nursery with Forest School-inspired learning experiences providing regular access to the outdoors and greenery - we even organise trips to the local farm!
