5.9 Food and Toys
For safety reasons please do NOT allow your child to bring any candy, food, drink or toys to school. Toys can easily become broken or lost. Teachers will not be responsible for toys brought to school. However, your child may bring a backpack to school that will be kept in the hall.
Exceptions to the food/drink rule are: if your child is having a special birthday celebration (notify homeroom teacher), the school is planning a holiday party (use sign up sheets outside homeroom door) or if your child has allergies (other wise Happy House provides healthy snacks).
- Birthday snacks may be provided. We encourage you to think outside the box and provide a celebration that is special and unique for your child. E.g. fruit and dip vegetables and salad dressing, fried rice or any ethnic food. BE CREATIVE.
- Please inform the teachers personally if your child has any allergies and make sure it is listed on the child’s medical form.
- Lunches are to be prepared and sent to school with the full day student. All lunches must be sent in a proper insulated lunch bag.
