  • Dear Parents

    If you are going to add your child in for the day, or cancel their booking, can you please LET US KNOW?! Our site agreement forbids us from being on-site between 10am-2pm, so we don't always get messages.

    We had a few parents today who were on site for a school function and decided they'd take their kid home afterwards...without letting us know. Under law, we have to ring the police if that happens.

    Oh and whichever parent thought that it was a good idea to let their child bring in WHOLE ALMONDS into a NUT-FREE school is an idiot.

    If they let that parent in the school, how "nut-free" can it be?

      And I can just hear it: 'But, but Almonds are not nuts!!'
      Funny thing is technically they are not, they are the seed of a type of fruit similar to a peach.

        For some reason, this comes to mind when I think of nuts and my childhood:

          Unfortunately we have a flat ban on peanuts, tree nuts and whole egg products at this particular site. Other sites are generally just nut-free, but we have a higher number of kids with food allergies and a few who are vegetarian or vegan. (Not anal-retentive about it though so if we give a vegetarian kid vegemite he's not going to freak.)

            And by that rationalization, peanuts would be allowed because they are legumes

            Though one could get away with corn nuts because they are just parched corn and not anything nut related at all.

                Vegemite says it is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.

                  Hmm...for some reason I was told to use our gluten-free alternative with them. Not sure why. (I have one kid who's gluten-free and vego, the other vegos are not allergic)

                  That said, I seem to have a sudden rash of vegetarianism at work . Why? Because the vegetarian kids get a slightly modified version of what everyone else gets for afternoon tea and suddenly that's more desirable. (We have 2 vegan children, but they're easier to cater for)
