NITS / HEAD LICE

Dear Parent/Caregiver,

We have been notified of a case of head lice in your child’s class and would be grateful if you could check your child’s hair and treat them if necessary.

Head lice can be a persistent problem and cause considerable frustration. To successfully manage and prevent the spread of head lice, it is important that all families remain vigilant and check regularly.

• Please check your child’s hair TODAY.
• Check your child’s hair carefully for head lice and nits (eggs).
• Continue checking every 2 days until no head lice have been found for 10 consecutive days.
• If you find head lice, please begin an effective treatment immediately and ensure you complete the full treatment process according to the instructions.
• Treatments are available from your local chemist/pharmacy. Please follow the product instructions carefully.
• Regular checking and early treatment are important in preventing head lice from spreading.
• If your child has long hair, keeping it tied up while around others can help reduce the risk of spreading head lice.
• Most importantly, please continue to check your child and family members regularly, even after treatment, to help prevent reinfestation.

Please see the attached notice for further information.

Thank you for your cooperation and support in helping us manage and prevent the spread of head lice.

Kind regards,
Waitoki School Office
