NB _-Míolta Gruaige/Head Lice:
Faraor, tá míolta gruaige fairsing go leor i ngach scoil, go háirithe ag an am seo den bhliain.  Tá curtha in iúl go bhfuil cás sa scoil agus bheimis buíoch go ndéanfaidh sibh scrudú ar ghruaig do chuid páiste INNIU.  Iarraimid oraibh seiceáil go minic agus oifig na scoile a chur ar an eolas más gá.
Unfortunately Headlice are a fact of life in all schools, particularly at this time of year.  We have been notified of a few current cases in the school and would appreciate if you check your child (rens) head TODAY and treat accordingly please if applicable.   We rely on the vigilance of parents to ensure outbreaks are kept to a minimum, but need ALL parents to carry out intermittent checks and please advise the school office if necessary, otherwise the problem will continue unabated . Thank you.
