Australia has one of the highest food allergy rates in the world. According to the Food Authority of NSW (New South Wales), food allergy now affects one in 10 infants and around two in 100 adults in Australia. Sending children with allergy and anaphylaxis to schools can be worrying for many parents, especially for those newly arrived in Australia, who may not be aware of the systems and guidelines in place. Renuka reports in Tamil with a feature written by Yumi Oba.
