North Woodvale Primary School is a Nut Aware School.

We acknowledge that due to food processing practices it is impractical to eliminate nuts or nut products entirely from an environment where there is food. Therefore, we have opted to be a ‘Nut Aware’ school which means:

• Please do not send nuts or nut products to school for your child’s recess or lunch.
• No nut products to be included in food on special days i.e. birthday cakes, or in any cooking activities at school or on school camps.
• Staff will supervise students eating at recess and lunch time.
• Students will be encouraged NOT to share food.
• Staff have participated in training for understanding and dealing with Anaphylaxis.
• All staff are made aware of specific students via their Medical Plans including photographs, emergency response planning and medication advice.

 Please alert the school to any allergies that your child/children may have on enrolment so we can implement the appropriate plan to support them.
