Anaphylaxis poses a life threatening risk. An EpiPen is essential for students with anaphylactic allergies and must be renewed before its expiration date. A yearly Anaphylaxis Management and Action Plan must be completed.
Students whose EpiPen has expired and not been replaced will not be allowed to participate in camps or excursions.
All our staff are trained in anaphylaxis management.
