<\/a><\/p>\nAs a staff team, we are very aware of the stresses that lockdown brings. \u00a0We want to support our nursery community as best we can, and also support each other. \u00a0We have been doing a lot of reading for professional development and our staff focus has been on Well Being- an essential in our job and the bed rock of being able to learn effectively, adapt to new situations and cope. \u00a0We apply this to ourselves too and have been keeping in touch with each other and supporting our colleagues through our staff What\u2019s App group. We communicate daily on this and share ideas. \u00a0We also share some crazy stuff which gives us all something to laugh about! \u00a0We share our family news and post photos! \u00a0It really keeps our team spirit alive. \u00a0Julie and Angela have just got new kittens and they are so adorable. Seeing videos of these gorgeous wee creatures makes our day!<\/p>\n

<\/a>Julie\u2019s new wee girl- Penny!\u2764<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>Pebbles and Penny are brother and sister! \u2764<\/p><\/div>\n
We have also also been having Zoom meetings. \u00a0These are great and it\u2019s so good to see everyone! It\u2019s also introduced us to the technology which we can use in future to hold virtual staff meetings- we have always struggled with these in the past, because we work different days and shifts. We might have to ditch the alcoholic beverages though! \ud83e\udd14<\/p>\n

Caroline, Lynn and myself would like to publicly thank all our fabulous staff team for the way they are helping support our nursery community, and each other, during a really tough time. We are really lucky to work with such creative, talented and caring people and can\u2019t thank them enough for all the things they are doing- from working at Clober with our keyworkers\u2019 children, to overcoming the horror of seeing themselves on video to bring our children stories and activities to try at home, to supporting each other on our darker days and providing each other with fun, laughter and love every single day! They are truly exceptional and they make our nursery a great place for our wee people, but also the best place to work, bar none! \u00a0A HUGE THANK YOU to each and every one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
