We have a few cases of head lice at our school ☹

Dear Parent/Caregiver

Head lice are very common in the community and we have noticed that some students in this class have head lice at the moment.

Please read the Information Sheet included with this letter. It is important that you check your child’s hair, and treat for head lice if required, to help prevent head lice spreading.

Check the hair of every member of the household. If you find live head lice on anyone, treat them as well. Do not treat everyone “just in case”.

It is a good idea to wash hair ties and hair brushes but you do not need to wash bedding or pillows.

Thank you for your cooperation.
