National Congress for Grandparents and
Kin Carers
Did you know that there are over 25,000 non-parental custodians nationally?
On the 5th and 6th of November 2009 it is planned to bring together some of these families and their support services to discuss those issues that make these families unique.
Head Lice
Head lice are nothing to be embarrassed about. We have recently had a number of classes where students have been identified with head lice. In those cases parents are formally notified so they can arrange treatment.
We appreciate your support, as it is only when we all work together that treatment is effective.
Your chemist will recommend effective treatments.
