head lice

Assalamualaikum

I hope you and your families are well and in good health.

This is to inform you that there was a case of head lice at SK today.  We have sent the sleepwear home please wash them well before resending. Also please take the time to check your child's hair.

This is a video that one of the teachers shared with us so that we can become familiar with head lice, you may find it useful too:

Also, here is an article that may help you identify whether your child has head lice or not:

Please keep your child at home (for at least 24 hours or one topical treatement has been completed) while being treated, so that the lice does not spread around the class.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

Take care,
