Head lice

Head lice can be a big problem in schools. We would like to remind parents to keep a look out on their children for any signs

of Lice or eggs.

If you do find head lice, commence effective treatment immediately and be sure to complete the process of treatment. This will

help prevent head lice from spreading.

If for any reason you are having difficulties or need advice on treating the head lice on your child, please contact the school on

Telephone: 0746971159
