Some schools send home chicken pox notices. Sometimes lice notes if you’re really unlucky.
Today, my kids’ school sent home a SNAKE NOTICE.
Apparently, one of the parents noticed a baby brown snake in the grounds while supervising at a school disco on Friday night. They informed the staff this morning, and the ’snake people’ (Moo’s words) came to do what they do (spray poison? beat the bushes with sticks? wave live mice around?). There was a second sighting at some point and they were concerned the warmer weather may have brought the snakes out of hibernation and into a breeding pattern, meaning a nest could be somewhere on the school grounds. The note assured parents the whole school had been drenched with Snake Be-Gone (or whatever snake poison is called).
Interesting to note: The nearest classroom to the garden bed where the snakes were spotted? Moo’s.
*SHUDDER*
Seriously, I’m in a cold sweat just thinking about it.
God….snakes….geez….
