VERY IMPORTANT REMINDER

As you are likely aware, we have a significant number of members in our Community at Cultivate who have severe nut allergies. Peanuts, along with many other varieties of nuts can cause severe allergic reactions in a wide range of ways, a few of which are by surface contact and airborne particles. As a school we have a responsibility to keep our students, staff and visitors safe and to reduce risk of harm.

We require all items brought into any of our sites to be free of: Peanuts, Walnuts, Almonds, Pecans, Hazelnuts, Cashews, Pistachios, Brazil Nuts, Pine Nuts, Macadamia Nuts, Peanut Butter or peanut based chocolate snacks (Snickers/ Reese’s pieces etc), items in which peanuts or nuts are listed as main ingredients, nut or peanut based oils or products, nut-based spreads such as Nutella or Almond Butter, etc.

We worked hard with Sam Olsen, OT with Persist Therapy, to get our sensory library ready for use! Cultivate Mankato teachers will also be able to utilize our sensory library, and children will be able to visit and use our quiet space if sensory breaks are needed. Thank you to the following for supporting our youngest children!
