Current allergy lists and other medical issues lists, indicating the child's name and allergy, are posted in Jardin d'éveil and PK classrooms. These are updated regularly to ensure information is accurate. – Medication will only be administered when a Medication Information Form has been completed and signed by the child's parent (form available at the Branch Office or from Jardin d'éveil staff).

The school cannot assume responsibility for providing a completely allergen-free environment. As a nut-restricted school, we have established procedures for staff, students, parents and visitors to reduce the risk of accidental exposure. The school requests that all students and adults who visit or work in the school do not bring or send nuts and nut products to school or on out-of-school activities, and avoid bringing or sending products that are labelled "may contain nuts." Alert sheets are posted in a prominent location in all teaching and commons areas and all staff are trained on the recommended emergency treatment (administration of epinephrine by an auto-injector). Asthma Policy In accordance with Ryan's Law, Ensuring Asthma Friendly Schools - 2015, TFS introduced a new Asthma Policy in 2015.
