Room 16
In Room 16, we have been using our mana aotūroa to break tasks into simple steps so that a robot could follow them. Our first task for the robot was to make a jam sandwich. We got a bit stuck when we forgot to tell the robot to take the lid off the jam! Once we had decided on all of the steps in the right order, we wrote some instructions.
Head lice are tiny, flat insects that live on the human scalp. Head lice lay their eggs (nits), onto hair strands. The main sign of head lice is being able to see the insects or nits by checking closely for them.
If one whānau member has head lice, then the rest of the whānau in the same household should also be checked. All whānau who have head lice, is recommended to be treated on the same day and can get free treatment for head lice from a local pharmacy listed below.
It is important to get treatment quickly! It may be helpful to call the pharmacy in advance to ensure that there is a pharmacist available to provide the service.
