Allergy-Friendly School - Keeping our young people safe

We are proud to be an allergy-friendly school, and we are committed to creating a safe environment for all young people-especially those with serious food allergies. To support this, we ask all families and staff to follow these important guidelines:

No Nuts, No Nuts Products

To protect young people with nut allergies, no nuts or nut containing products are allowed on school premises. This includes snacks and packed lunches.

Common foods that may contain nuts include:

Peanut butter and other nut spreads e.g. almond, cashew
Nutella and other chocolate-hazelnut spreads
Granola bars and cereal bars
Some chocolate and confectionery
Cakes, biscuits, and pastries
Trail mix and snack packs
Desserts with nut toppings

Please always check ingredient labels carefully before sending food to school.

Egg restrictions

We also ask that raw and cooked egg is not brought into school in any form. This includes:

Egg sandwiches
Homemade Mayonnaise
Boiled eggs

Warning sign with an exclamation point and the word IMPORTANT on a blue background.

Unfortunately, if any food items containing nuts (including spreads like Nutella) or raw or cooked egg that are sent into school, we will have to dispose of them and contact parents or carers to bring an alternative item for their young person to eat.

By working together, we can ensure that every young person feels safe, included, and cared for.
