Allergies

While there are many foods which can cause allergies, peanuts and nuts are a common and

potent cause of food allergies. Labelling regarding peanuts/nuts is generally very clear.

However, as the children with allergies need to learn to protect themselves, we too play a role

in being “allergy aware”. Please:

• Check the list of ingredients on items that you send to school.
• Avoid sending products that contain or “may contain” peanuts/nuts to school.
• Avoid sending Wowbutter and other “imitation peanut butters” to school.

Teach your children to understand this serious situation and encourage them to support

their classmates.

Thank you for your support. If you have any questions or would like more information, please

contact the school.
