Featuring the theme “Be your best self online”, this year’s event invites children and young people to explore what it means to be a positive digital citizen.

This week-long event is a celebration and promotion of being a positive digital citizen. This week provides a chance for teachers, parents and students to develop new and important skills.

Classes will focus on the theme in class during the week.

HEAD LICE

Some cases of head lice have been reported in recent days. Head lice are very common, so there is no need to be alarmed. However, children should be treated quickly to prevent lice from spreading. We are asking that all parents examine their child/ren’s hair and look for the following signs:

Persistent scratching, particularly behind the ears and the nape of the neck, accompanied by a red rash.
Tiny silver white eggs at the base of the hair shaft.
Small pale brown lice. You may wish to use a magnifying glass and a fine-tooth comb under strong light to help identify lice.

Head lice can be treated quickly and effectively by simply following these steps:

Purchase a specialist head lice treatment and apply it according to the directions on the pack.
Examine all family members’ hair and treat everyone found to have head lice.
Wash out the treatment and use a fine-tooth comb to remove the dead lice and eggs.
Repeat the treatment: in 7-10 days

Please note that children are able to attend school once they have been treated.
