Nutrition At VVP
Nourishing Minds, Nourishing Health, Nurturing Future
Food and nutrition are an integral part of grooming a child and hence are given utmost importance at Vishwa Vidyapeeth. We have a well maintained, hygienic kitchen and food is prepared with proper measurements to ensure quality and hygiene
The inhouse kitchen caters breakfast, two snacks and lunch for all the students. The food menu is carefully designed keeping in mind a balanced diet while also being healthy, nutritious and tasty. We ensure the children have sufficient portions with respect to their age. The food menu is shared with the parents on a weekly basis through the school app.
The snacks and lunch include fruits and vegetables (some of these are grown in the school garden), ensuring good health. We encourage students to serve food during the lunch and snack time, bringing in a sense of responsibility and ownership in senior classes.
We do keep a strict vigil when it comes to “no waste of food”, students are advised to clean the food on their plate without wasting. This brings in a very important life lesson of how important food is and wasting food is not encouraged.
