Head lice are about again !!!

Anyone with hair can catch head lice, but children who have head-to-head contact, either at school or during play, are most commonly affected. Head lice are not fussy about hair length or condition (whether it is dirty or clean).Head lice affect only humans, and cannot be passed on to, or caught from, animals. The staff and governors would like to wish you all a very happy and holy Christmas Let Gods love shine in our lives as we care and share and learn together
