Allergy Policy

At Murray Districts Playgroup, the health and safety of every child is our highest priority.

To help keep all children safe, we operate a strict 🥚 Egg-Free • 🥜 Nut-Free • 🥛 Dairy-Free policy during every playgroup session.

 

🍎 Food & Drink

Please help us by:

✅ Bringing only egg-free, nut-free and dairy-free food to playgroup.

🧼 Ensuring lunchboxes, drink bottles and containers are thoroughly cleaned to prevent cross-contamination.

🔍 Checking ingredient labels before attending each session.

 

💊 Allergy Medication

If your child has a diagnosed allergy, please ensure you:

✅ Bring all required medication (including EpiPens or antihistamines) to every session.

🏷️ Clearly label all medication and keep it easily accessible.

👩‍👧 Inform a committee member if your child’s allergy management plan changes.

 

🚨 In an Emergency

If you believe a child or adult is experiencing an allergic reaction:

🚑 Notify a committee member immediately.

Our committee will follow emergency procedures and contact emergency services if required.

 

💚 Working Together

Thank you for helping us provide a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for every family.

 

⚠️ Our allergy policy is non-negotiable. Failure to follow this policy may result in families being asked to leave the session and may affect ongoing membership, as the safety of our children must always come first.
