Allergies
We have a number of students in our school with severe
life threatening anaphylactic allergies. We ask you to take careful consideration and not
send your child to school with food products that contain peanuts/nuts and fish/shellfish. There
is also a student in the school with a raw and cooked egg
allergy. We understand that many prepared and processed
food items contain egg products and it may be difficult to make snacks and lunches that do
not contain egg products. We ask that you refrain from sending to school
items as hard boiled eggs and egg salad sandwiches. We have provided a link
below that contains some suggested snack items that do not conatin egg products.
However, do not feel that you are limited to sending only these products to school with
your child. If you have any concerns or questions about this matter please do not
hesitate to contact Mr. Tremblett or Mrs. Smith @ 576-4731.

Eastern School District's Policy
Peanut & Nut Free
Peanut Butter Replacements
The Eastern School District has determined
that given the similarities in appearance, texture and taste to peanut butter that Peanut
& Nut Free Peanut Butter replacement products will be restricted in school where a
student has a peanut allergy. The Eastern School District recognizes that these
products present no risk of anaphylactic allergy, however, having these products in the
schools does undermine the District's capacity to enforce the restriction of peanut
butter. Teachers on duty would not be able to distinguish between the two products,
therefore, both products are restricted in a school where a student has a peanut allergy.

Roncalli Elementary School serves 360 students from
Kindergarten to Grade 6. The school's current population is organized in 19 classroom
groupings. Roncalli Elementary School is a neighbourhood school serving the Airport
Heights community. The boundary for the school covers the western side of Torbay Road from
Airport Road to Harbour View Avenue including the Hussey Drive area, Majors Path and
streets adjacent to it and Airport Heights Drive and streets that branch from it. The
housing development in our surrounding neighborhood is proceeding and thus there is
greater opportunity for increased student enrollment at Roncalli. Approximately 20% of the
students travel to and from school by the school bus service.
