CHCCN303A - Nutrition

[Vezzi]

Hi, I would really appreciate some advice in regards to my assignment question:
'List the DOCS’s regulations and NCAC principles, which relate to food preparation and provision'. I then need to give examples of these in the menu plan I have done.
When I look up the DOC's website & NCAC principles, i find alot of principles and information ie: Principle 6.1: Staff promote healthy eating habits, however, as I can't provide an example of this on my menu plan, I don't think this is the answer.
I have found a Nutrition Checklist for Long Day care, is this the information required ie need to provide Beef/Lamb 4 times in a fortnight.
Many thanks, I have been sitting on this assignment for over 1 month now and am sure I am just over complicating it.

Hi Vezzi,

For your question I had a look at the policy and procedures manual regarding food preparation and provision to see what I could come up with. There is a nutrition policy in the manual which refers to the following legislations: DOCS Children's Services Regulation, Food ACT 2003, QIAS (Quality Improvement and Accreditation System). However it doesn't list which part of the Regulation or the QIAS it is exactly referring too. I will attach a copy of the nutrition policy to give you an idea of examples you could use with your menu plan.

I think you may be on the right track... you will probably need to list the regulations and principles and provide examples. For Principle 6.1 you could mention that staff encourage children to eat during meal times, staff sit down and eat with the children during meal times etc...

Hopefully this should help get your assignment completed once and for all!!

Please let me know if you require anymore help,

Also would you please be able to tell me the module number for this assignment so I can edit the topic heading...

Cheers ,
