Good News
We are delighted to share the news that Miss Anderson has had a baby girl. We send them our very best wishes.
SEN Parent Catch-up
There will be a SEN parent tea & coffee catch-up on Wednesday 8 May (11.05am – 11.45am) in the school hall. This will be a chance for parents to meet up for an informal chat.
Reminder: Nut Free School
We would like to remind parents that we are a nut free school due to a number of members of our school community (children and staff) who have nut allergies. Anaphylaxis (allergic reaction) can occur as a result of digestion, inhalation or any other contact with nut-based products. For their safety, the decision has been made to ban all nut-based products from the school premises.
Please do not send your child into school with any nut-based product for packed lunch or snack – this includes products that may contain traces of nuts.
Potential allergens could include the following:
- Spreads, e.g. chocolate spread
- Cereal bars
- Some types of biscuit containing nuts
- Condiments, e.g. satay sauce
- Cakes containing nuts
- Some snack pots containing nuts
It is important that you check the labelling of food products before sending your child in to school with them – it is not always apparent that products contain nuts or traces of nuts.
We also ask that, if your child consumes any nut-based product before school, they wash their hands thoroughly and rinse their mouth before entering the school grounds. We understand that these measures may seem extreme; however, we want to ensure the health and safety of all our pupils, and some of the pupils with the allergy are severe enough that even the slightest of contact with nuts could cause a severe and potentially life-threatening reaction.
We appreciate that this is a big change for all and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
