Struggling with tired, cranky mornings? This bedtime fix makes all the difference!
We wanted to let you know that we've noticed a few cases of head lice in Colwill School-nothing to worry about, but we'd love your help to manage it smoothly.
Why We're Letting You Know
According to Health New Zealand, tamariki with live lice should stay home until treatment has started, so we'd like to ensure everyone gets treated promptly to keep our class healthy and happy.
What We're Doing at School
If we see live lice on your child during the day, we'll call you with a friendly reminder to pick them up for treatment. Once treatment has begun, your child is welcome to return to school-no need to wait for their hair to be completely free of lice or nits. We've got free treatment kits available-just let us know, and we'll provide one to support your whānau.
A Little Reassurance
Head lice are super common among young children and are absolutely not a sign of poor hygiene. Our focus is caring-not shaming-and making sure everyone feels supported.
If you'd like a treatment kit, extra combs, or a chat about steps, feel free to message or call the office. Together, we've got this!
