As you are aware, San Marco Catholic School is an allergen safe school as we have many students who are susceptible to severe anaphylactic reactions which could be life threatening.
Please do not bring any foods that contain or may contain any nuts or traces of nuts. In addition to nuts, there may be specific allergies in your child’s classroom (e.g. dairy, eggs, fish). If this is the case, your child’s teacher will be sending a letter home and/or posting this class allergy letter to their VLE Google Classroom. Please follow the instructions contained therein and please do not bring foods that contain those allergens listed in your classroom allergy letter.
If any of the named food items are ingested, the allergic reaction could be fatal within minutes. Just touching a surface that has come in contact with any of the allergens listed above can also trigger a severe allergic reaction.
Thank you for not sending any foods that may contain these allergens in your child’s lunches, nor any lotions, creams or hand sanitizers containing these allergens to school.
Kindly remind your child not to share their snacks and lunch with other children. Please accept our appreciation for your understanding and for everything you do to help keep our classroom a healthy and safe environment for all our students.
Thank you for helping to keep San Marco Allergy Aware and Nut-Safe by providing snacks and lunches for your child that do not contain any traces of nuts or nut products and that are made in a nut free facility.
