Nut Allergy
Last updated September 5th, 2009 at 5:52 p.m.Dear Parents:
This letter is to advise you of two students in your child's class who have an allergy to nut and nut products. An allergic reaction can be life threatening, therefore we are eliminating nut and nut products in this class.
Please read the package ingredients carefully before selecting your child's store-bought snacks. When bringing a home made treat to the class, please omit any nut products and supply a list of ingredients. We have included a list of products below that are not permitted.
We appreciate your efforts in supporting our Save and Caring environment at Thickwood Heights School.
