Head Lice
There is now no need to go to your doctor for a prescription for head lice treatment. The same service is now available from Lloyds Pharmacy of 176 Main Street, Barrhead. If you suspect that a family member(s) has head lice, first pop into the Pharmacy, collect a FREE special detector comb and follow the simple instructions in the leaflet you will be given, which tells you how to collect samples and bring them to the pharmacy. All family members should be checked at the same time.
If you do not find living, moving lice on the scalp, you do not have head lice and you do not need treatment, even if nits are stuck to the hair shafts. Nits are not head lice, only empty shells. On returning to the Pharmacy the pharmacist or trained assistant will check the sample and if it is positive for head lice, supply treatment and advice. If the patient is exempt from NHS prescription charges, no charge will be made; otherwise a standard NHS prescription charge applies.
REMEMBER The best way to stop infection is to comb the hair well twice a day with an ordinary comb and check damp hair at least once a week.

Sainsbury’s Active Kids Vouchers
St. Thomas’ Primary are collecting the Sainsbury’s Active Kids vouchers. Please remember to donate all your vouchers by 30th June.
How to get involved
It’s easy to collect vouchers for Active Kids 2017. Simply shop in Sainsbury’s stores or online and you will earn Active Kids vouchers on your shopping.
Ways to collect:
1. Sainsbury’s Local
In Sainsbury’s Local stores you’ll get one voucher for every £5 you spend.
2. Sainsbury’s Supermarkets
Every time you shop at a Sainsbury’s Supermarket you’ll be given one voucher for every £10 you spend at the till.
3. Online
You’ll still receive the equivalent of one voucher for every £10 you spend. But they’ll all be printed on one piece of paper up to the maximum value of 50 vouchers – so make sure you keep it safe.

Dropping off children at Neilston Primary for MACS
Please remember that both the Neilston Primary School and Family Centre car parks within the campus are designated for staff only. This includes from 8:15am for those who access the MACS service. Staff arrive between 8:00 – 8:40. Having children being dropped off in the car park and running through the car park is not safe. Please make use of the streets and parking around the campus for this – ensuring that you comply with parking regulations. Please avoid parking on the zig-zags at all times.
