Craft Sand Contamination 

You may be aware of a recent alert about coloured craft sand products that may contain asbestos. There is a list of the products of concern here: 

• Educational Colours - Rainbow Sand (1.3kg), Creatistics - Coloured Sand (1kg) and Kadink - Coloured Decorative Sand (1.3kg) | ACCC Product Safety
• Kadink Decorative sand 10g 6 pack | ACCC Product Safety

At our school, we are taking the steps set out by the Department of Education to collect and dispose of the product. Current advice from national and Victorian health authorities is that there is a low risk to human health from these products. If you have the product at home, however, the advice from the health authorities is that you should stop using it and follow the safety advice published here: Safe disposal and health information for consumers with recalled sand products | ACCC Product. As a school, we acted immediately upon receiving this alert, as safety is always our priority.
