HEARTY SNACK
03-10-2014, 08:24 AMIt's that time of year again! School is back in session and everyone is starting to ask the infamous October question: “what are you going to be for Halloween?” As the seasons change and OSC is returning into the swing of Fall, certain changes are about to take place.
A keystone of OSC is
that at around 3:00pm everyday, snack is provided to the students. Throughout
the summer months, our snacks have consisted of a variety of ‘boxed goods’ such
as scrumptious goldfish crackers, yummy fruit gummies and toasted grilled
cheese sandwiches. Like the colours of the trees outside, our snack program is
changing too!
Starting next week we
are reintroducing hearty snacks. Hearty snacks take a ‘health and fresh’
prep focus to producing our snacks. As of Monday, October 6th, two
of our staff members will be meeting up everyday at West to plan, prepare and
cook snacks for that given day. Our staff are given free reign to come up with
creative and delicious meals to be served to both our Senior & Junior OSC
programs. Some tasty treats on the menu for October include french toast
muffins, lettuce wraps, mini tacos and cheese scones.
On Mondays and
Wednesdays hearty snacks will be prepared by Katie & Stuart; Tuesdays and
Fridays are lead by Monica & Aislinn; and on Thursdays it will be Sara
& Matt. These leaders have the choice to make whatever they’d like as long
as there is some element of cooking or baking involved. There is a strong
balance between baked goods and cooked meals; all delicious, all hearty, and
all ready for the kids J
All of our staff are
super excited to get things going next week. Click the link below to see our
calendar, which lists what will be prepared each day!
