I hope this letter finds you well. As we progress through this term, we are committed to evaluating, streamlining, and making our healthcare plans at school more efficient. This is to ensure that we provide the best possible care and support for all our students.

 

New healthcare forms will be issued soon to reflect these updates. However, in the interim, it is crucial that you contact the school office immediately if your child has received a recent diagnosis or if they have outgrown a previous allergy. This information is vital for us to maintain accurate and up-to-date records and to ensure the safety and well-being of your child.

 

To strengthen our existing practices, we will be issuing wristbands to children who have allergies to wear while they are in school.  The wristbands will serve as a visual reminder to all staff members to exercise caution and take necessary precautions, particularly around food and other potential allergens.

 

We believe that the majority of parents and carers will welcome our vigilant approach. However, should you not wish your child who has an allergy to wear these wristbands, please write to the school office to inform us that you would prefer we remove this precautionary measure.

 

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
