Milk Hero Spotlight – november

Matthew Purtell, Childsplay Day Nursery

Every month, Cool Milk shines a spotlight on someone who goes above and beyond to make milk-time special in their school or nursery. Our November Milk Hero is a shining example of just that — congratulations to Matthew Purtell from Childsplay Day Nursery! 💙

Matthew, affectionately known by the team as “our nursery milk man,” was nominated by Karina Clark, who shared:

“Matt collects the milk each morning and makes sure it’s delivered to the children’s rooms. He also plans regular activities to promote the health benefits of milk — the children really look forward to it.”

Matthew’s dedication doesn’t stop at ensuring every child gets their daily milk. His creative approach to teaching children about the health benefits of milk helps turn each delivery into a learning experience. From fun discussions to engaging activities, Matt’s efforts inspire curiosity and encourage healthy habits from an early age.

At Cool Milk, we love hearing stories like Matthew’s — real examples of staff who help children enjoy milk as part of a happy, healthy daily routine.

Congratulations, Matt! 👏
Thank you for making milk-time a highlight of the day for your children and for showing how small moments can make a big impact.
