Nut Allergies
Dear parents/carers,
We have noticed since returning to school a few children are having pesto in their lunches.
Please can we remind parents that pesto contains pine nuts and can contain walnuts/cashew nuts. These are in both green and red pesto products.
Please can parents not to provide children with pesto or pesto based products for their lunches as we have children and staff who have nut allergies. We feel the best way to reduce their risk of accidental exposure is to respectfully ask for the co-operation of the parents/guardians within this school community.
Please see attached more information on Pine nuts from Anaphylaxis UK .
Kind Regards,
Tarporley CE Primary School
