"News from the Nurses"

Please check the Weekender throughout the school year for “News from the Nurses" which will entail general health tips for our students, updates on illnesses and prevention, health related education, and other relevant health information for our OLG families.  

Healthy Lunch and Snack Campaign

• OLG is a nut aware school. Products with nuts should not be sent to school for lunches or snacks. 

• A nut/peanut free table is available in the lunchroom for students with allergies. Students are allowed to bring along a friend to the table as long as that child does not have an allergen in their lunch. SunButter is a great alternative to use in place of peanut butter. 

• We encourage students and their parents to prioritize sending healthy lunches and snacks by incorporating a well balanced variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and protein. It is also important for students to limit foods with added sugars, but rather encourage foods that will provide sustainable energy for the school day.
