Birthday treats and edible homework

Dear Parent/Carer, 

We have received some questions from parents regarding "Birthday treats."

 Our school policy in relation to birthday treats coming into school is that this will no longer be permitted.  The reason for this change is the concern we have had for a while regarding:

  1. Financial pressure to provide on birthdays
  2. Pressure to reciprocate
  3. Variety of food ethics - no sugar, vegan, dairy free, gelatine free, etc...
  4. Risk to children with allergies, e.g. nut

We always celebrate children's birthdays in school with a certificate, rubber prize and the decoration of the child's table at lunchtime; we will leave further celebrations to home.

Edible homework will not be shared in school.

Best wishes
