Healthy Tots setting
We worked to become part of the Leicestershire Healthy Tots programme, achieving Healthy Tots status. To become accredited, we worked through a plan related to the criteria: Healthy Eating, Physical Activity and Emotional Health and Well-being. We continue to promote healthy eating and healthy lifestyles and received our re-accreditation in January 2021.
