Nut Free School (From September 2024)
People who suffer from nut allergies can develop a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. If someone has a nut allergy it is not just eating nuts that can cause a severe reaction, just being touched on the skin or smelling the breath of someone who has had nuts or a product containing nuts can trigger an allergic reaction which can cause breathing and swallowing difficulties.
We would ask that all parents check lunch boxes carefully to ensure that no products containing nuts are included.
Our “Nut-Free Policy” means that the following items should not be brought into school:

We know that any parent will understand the importance of keeping all children safe and would want community support if it was their child affected. Please help us to keep all children in our care safe.
