More details to follow.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Remembrance Day<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Tuesday 11th November. As part of our learning around Remembrance Day, we will be talking with the children about why we observe this important occasion. If staffing allows, we hope to take a group of children to the local war memorial to attend the Remembrance Day service. We would greatly appreciate any parent volunteers who are available to help walk the children to and from the memorial. Your support would help make this a meaningful and safe experience for the children. If you&#8217;re able to assist, please let a member of staff know. Thank you!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>In \u2013 Service Day<\/strong><\/em>&#8211; Friday 14th November. Nursery will be closed to all children on this day.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Children In Need<\/strong><\/em> &#8211; Thursday 13th November. As Friday 14th November is an in-service day, we will be marking Children in Need on Thursday 13th November instead. There will be a donation bucket available in the front hall for anyone who wishes to contribute. Donations are entirely optional. Children are also welcome to wear something spotty to help celebrate the day -again, this is completely optional.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Annual Toy Drive<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Various locations across North East Fife are participating in this year\u2019s event, including Tayport Primary School, which will run between 1st November \u2013 30th November. Donations will be collected and distributed to children and families in need. We will be collecting for boys and girls aged between 0-18. Gifts must be new and unwrapped.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Nursery Times:<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Just a wee reminder of our nursery session times:<\/p>\n<p>AM Sessions: 8.00am \u2013 12.40pm<br \/>\nTerm Time Sessions: 9.00am \u2013 3.00pm<br \/>\nWe understand that families may need some flexibility, so drop-off and pick-up can take place any time after 8.00am and before 12.40pm, or after 9.00am and before 3.00pm, depending on your child\u2019s session.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Sickness\/Illness<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Just a gentle reminder: if your child is unwell\u2014particularly with vomiting or diarrhoea\u2014the current guidelines are a 48-hour exclusion from nursery following the last bout of illness. This helps prevent the spread of infection and ensures all children can enjoy a safe and healthy environment. Also, when children are feeling poorly, they often find it difficult to cope with the busy nursery day. Keeping them at home to rest can really help with a quicker recovery.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Winter Weather<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Could all parents please ensure their child is appropriately dressed for the weather and that all clothing is clearly named. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Please visit our nursery website to access further information and our weekly blog.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The Nursery Team<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; PEEP \u2013 Thank you to those who have signed up to our current block of PEEP sessions.
