Creating Positive Mealtimes at Bruce ECC
At Bruce Early Childhood Centre, in the nursery learning environment, our Educators have been working hard to make mealtimes more enjoyable and enriching for the children. Mealtimes give the children the opportunity to not only have nutritional experiences for the first time but also offer them valuable moments for growth and promote their sense of agency.
The Educators make sure that the children have a valuable experience during mealtimes by offering furniture and utensils that are in the correct proportions for each child. This helps the children feel comfortable and confident during mealtimes and lets them focus on learning and their own needs.
At Bruce Early Childhood Centre, mealtimes become more than just feeding, they’re about facilitating growth and learning in every way possible.

Margaret is one of the many friendly faces who joined CRCS’s Involve program after participating in the Communities at Work social groups. We recently asked her to share a bit about herself as part of our effort to get to know each other better and celebrate the diverse experiences within our group.
This year our Involve group is creating something special – a storytelling quilt made up of memories and experiences. We’re calling it Moments in Time because each quilt square captures a memory or moment, or even a series of moments, that the maker feels deeply connected to and wants to share.
