Dear Parent/Carer
Another busy week at Flora’s: Parent Council meeting, the nasal
flu spray vaccinations, enrolment for our new P1 pupils in August, a special

exciting venues, twelve teachers visiting from Norway and superheroes filling
the school today for Children in Need! I think we all need a relaxing weekend!

who are performing in the Gang Show next week! Very well done indeed – we are
all very proud of your achievement.

Head
Lice
In a large school like Flora’s it is inevitable that we
occasionally see cases of head lice. Here is some information about how best to
get to rid of these unwelcome visitors.
Head lice are spread through head to head contact at home, while
playing or in school.
Regular wet combing of your child’s hair using a head lice
detection comb is the best way to catch this possible problem at an early
stage.
The only way to be sure that your child has head lice is to find a
live louse. If you find live lice, get the correct lotion from your doctor,
health visitor or pharmacist. Shampoos and other treatments are not effective.
One treatment is two applications of the treatment lotion, seven
days apart. If this is not followed then re-infection is likely.
Advise family members and close friends that your child has head
lice and that they should check their own hair. Only treat if live lice are
found. Don’t be shy about advising others of this possible problem because you
would likely tell family and friends about other infections which might affect
them.
Regular wet combing of your child’s hair with the head lice
detector comb is the best protection as it allows you to detect the condition
and treat it speedily.
