Little Jogs Day Nursery held a ‘Fathers’ Day’ on Saturday 15/11/08 with an invitation extended exclusively to the Dads whose children attended the nursery. Nursery Manager, Elena Allan, explained: “Mostly we see Mums when the children are dropped off and again when they are picked up, so this was really a chance for the Dads to come in with their child and see what they do when they are with us, examples of their work and how much fun they have learning. “We had a really good turnout and I’m not sure who were the most proud; the children showing off to their Dads or the Dads discovering how much their children have achieved?” Sat with three-year-old Joel was dad Ian Nesbit, who felt it was a great idea for fathers who otherwise might not see their child at the nursery. He said: “It is nice to be hands on with Joel; my own father was very busy when I was young and I have vowed I would do as much as I could with this one.”  Another dad was Vic Smeeton, who, in the midst of a major wooden block construction project with three-and-a-half-year-old Billy, said: “Most days he is down here I tend to bring him and pick him up, but you only see a little bit of what he does – mostly he just runs in and then I’m off to work. “This is really nice to have the chance to see how much he enjoys being here and for him to show me the kind of things he does."
