HEAD LICE
There is a head lice occurrence in the school. Please could you check your child tonight by:
(a) washing your child’s hair (followed by a conditioner)
(b) combing out their hair over the sink with a very fine comb
(c) looking very closely for eggs or lice
If infected:
(a) purchase treatment from chemist (or ask doctor for prescription)
(b) carefully treat ALL the family immediately
(c) check that the treatment has worked
Please ensure that all long hair is tied up at all times!
Your help in this is appreciated. It is the only way we will be able to eradicate nit/lice infestation. If parents do not check their child’s hair regularly, the school will suffer continually from head lice.
We appreciate your co-operation.
