Despite uncertainty, preschools welcome back infants

Those who previously had no alternative but to leave their children at home while they went to work are breathing a sigh of relief, as are principals who are overjoyed to meet their students in person. “The parents are more than happy. They were just elated,” said Nadine Cunningham, principal of Bright Sparks Nursery and Learning Centre, who spoke with The Gleaner on Monday, October 25.
