FRIDAY NIGHT IS HAIR CHECK NIGHT!
We have recently received a number of reports from parents that their child has had to be treated for head lice. This is not a new problem of course, indeed it is one which is affecting all schools in the Borough and is one which the local Health Authority is trying to address. However it is one which can, with proper treatment and after-care, be controlled quite easily.
We are asking parents therefore to be very watchful for any signs that their child may have a problem of this kind, to report any outbreak to school and to seek advice and treatment immediately. Treatment is available at your local chemist free of charge (just ask at the counter).
Taking measures to prevent head lice is important, and even though it can’t be avoided completely we would encourage children with long hair to have it tied back when in school.
