Student Food Allergy and Intolerance Form
This form allows our staff to be well-informed regarding students with medically verifiable food allergies and intolerances. If
your child has food allergies or intolerances, please have the completed form signed by your child’s physician or allergist prior to
returning to the office. All parents/guardians of children with allergies and intolerances must also arrange a meeting with their
child's Head Teacher and, if desired, the School Chef.
For students who do not have food allergies and intolerances, please complete the top portion and the first two questions, then
simply sign yourself and return. Thanks!
