For 23) could it be something like having a preplanned weekly menu. Food can either be ordered and reheated at the centre (like gourmet kids) or you could have a chef at the centre who cooks all the meals freshly. In regards to providing foods and drink maybe you could think of ways that it could be presented to the children e.g. self serve or having a progressive morning tea, etc.

24) Yes, how else could you involve children...

25) Yes, you're on the right track... what about help to set up the table...
