Life Threatening Allergies

At Byron Somerset, life-threatening allergies are taken very seriously. We have some students who are severely allergic to peanut butter and some nut products. For some children, severe allergic reactions can be triggered by not only eating foods but also by their touch and smell. We strongly encourage all families not to send these products to school. Our goal is to have a healthy and safe environment for all students.

It is the responsibility of all parents to inform the school in September, if their child has a life-threatening allergy so that individual safety plans can be put in place.

We appreciate and thank all families in the Byron Somerset community for their ongoing support, understanding and sensitivity to this issue throughout the school year.
