Allergy Aware School
The number of children with food allergies in Australia is increasing and it is estimated that 1 in 20 have a food allergy and 1 in 50 a peanut allergy. The symptoms of food allergies range from mild to life threatening and anaphylaxis is the most severe form of allergic reaction. Scotch College is an Allergy Aware School and we therefore ask parents not to send high risk foods particularly nut and nut products to school.
