  • This Right Here Is A Life Saver

    For anyone that doesn’t know what this is. It’s a nit comb. Do us all a favour and put it on your uniform list for the year. No excuses about money or time please. 🤚🙄

    This particular one cost less than £10 and I’ve had it 8 years, so definitely worth the money.

    I have three girls (aged 6, 7, and 9), I work part time, run my own business on the side, volunteer at my local school whilst studying a degree, and I am out 5 nights a week for sporting events for my children to take part in. And I still manage to check their hair 2-3 times a week. – It takes me 30-45 minutes for the three of them, depending how thorough I want to be.

    Mine have had clean hair for months now, and guaranteed one week into school my youngest will come home with some because some parent just hasn’t managed to get round to checking their hair in the six weeks their child has had off school. 🤦‍♀️ We all have the same 24 hours in a day. Use it wisely.

  • Nit Nurse Come Back

    Should the nit nurse be brought back?

    One mother has been trying to start a campaign to bring them back?

    She has met with mixed views.

    Some feel it is an invasion of their childs rights and privacy.

    Where as other parents welcome it back, many parents are fed up of their child continuously coming home having caught nits off of their class mates.

    We asked several mums their thoughts on it:

    “I feel if it’s acceptable to check if my child is over weight and send a letter home if they are, then why can’t they check for nits, it’s no more an invasion of privacy then the height and weight check”.

    Another said “I don’t want my child to be embarrassed in front of her class mates if she did have them”.

    We asked just over 200 parents and found that 127 would welcome it back if it were done discreetly and no embarrassment is caused to child and parent.

    Whats your thoughts let us know in the comments.
