Hi,
I have a 4yo dd who is allergic to wheat, eggs, soya and nuts. She's not anaphylactic (how to spell??!!) but has nasty skin reacions and also severe excema. We have fully briefed her school on the allergies and what she can/can't have.
Today it was a child's birthday in her class and unbelievably the teacher gave dd some cake! It was only when I picked her up from the childminders that it all came out she was given a slice of cake just before the childmider picked her up at lunchtime (she only does a half ay ATM) and by the time they got home her face was all red and swollen. THe childminder was all worried but dd didn't tell her about the cake until I got there.
I phoned the school but the teachers were busy. By the time they phoned back I was out so my mum took a message in which the teachers said it shouldn't have happened but didn't exactly say sorry or admit responsibility either.
Dh is hopping mad over this but says it's up to me how I handle it. the thing is I don't really know if there's anything i can/sholud say. She goes to a good school and she's thriving there but they don't seem v. allergy/excema aware generally. Any advice? thank you!
