Head Lice
Dear Parents,
It seems that head lice are around in force at the moment and I would like to ask for your assistance to try and break the cycle and free Langwarrin Primary from their grasp.
Could you please check your child’s hair for live eggs or lice?
Should you find any, there are two choices of treatment:
Chemical:
Treat and comb with a head lice comb to remove the head lice and eggs; and repeat in 7 days, and then again in 7 days.
Non-Chemical:
Use conditioner and comb with a head lice comb to remove the head lice and eggs and repeat every 2 days until no live lice have been found for 10 days.
Once you have successfully treated the lice, you should use the conditioner and comb method in the shower or bath, once a week to prevent them from reoccurring.
Thank you for your co-operation.

CSEF
The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund helps eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.
If you have a valid means-tested concession card, such as a Veterans Affairs Gold Card, Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card, or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible. There is also a special consideration category for asylum seeker and refugee families.
Payment amounts this year are $125 for eligible primary school students. Payments are made direct to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions and sporting activities for the benefit of your child.
It is important that funding made available in 2023 supports students to participate in school trips, camps and sporting activities this year rather than being held for future years. This funding can also be used in conjunction with any funding accrued from previous years.
If you applied for CSEF through our school last year, you do not need to complete an application form this year, unless there has been a change in your family circumstances.
If you would like to apply for the first time, please contact the school office on 9789 7346 and ask for an application form.
You can also download the form, and find out more about the program and eligibility, on the Department of Education and Training’s Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) application form (education.vic.gov.au)
Check with the school office if you are unsure.
