COMMITTEE REPORTS (Cont'd)

[[underline]]NURSERY[[/underline]]
On November 3rd, the green and yellow doors of the Base Nursery opened and ten little children between 2-6 years of age enrolled.
During the first week there were three more to enter.  The average daily attendance is 10.  With such a gay, bright environment and varied and interesting program, the children look forward to going to school each day.  The program includes such activities as: clay modeling, cutout dolls, singing games, storytelling, coloring, movies, tours around the base, playground and quiet hour.
Mrs. Fairfax, the supervisor, is doing a fine job with the children.
Each child is taught to hang up his clothes in his locker and to brush his teeth before eating.  Before eating they sing grace.  She is attempting to make these children independent which is a very desirable quality.
To those who worked so hard to make the nursery a reality it is indeed gratifying to see some few mothers take advantage of such an opportunity which will prove beneficial to their children.  How would we like to see the enrollment double this month!
