We are now looking to take names for the January term for our 2's group.  Our sessions are held in the cricket pavilion on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Fees are £3.75 per session, for 2 hours.  Kiddiwinks is fortunate to boast its own garden and safe access to secure outside playtime.

Having just recently hired a new playleader, we have received wonderful feedback from parents, and even the local health visitors.

We run our terms in-line with the local schools, and take the same in-service days and closures.

Bitesize Nutrition will be holding Healthy Eating for Weight Loss classes in Kemnay Village Hall, starting Wednesday 11th January 2012 at 6.30pm.

Real food and expert advice from a qualified nutritionist

The main aim of the class is to help you lose weight, but weight loss goes hand in hand with healthy eating so the class also provides you with sound nutritional advice on subjects such as: - 

• The importance of calcium for bone health
• The difference between LDL & HDL cholesterol
• How to speed up your metabolism
• The health benefits of fibre, and it's uses in weight management 

Each week you will be weighed, followed by a 15 minute presentation on a healthy eating topic, after this there will be a short informal discussion on the healthy eating topic covered and any other questions you may have.  Each week we will also discuss healthy meal, snack and recipe ideas.

I have in my possession a photograph of my great uncle Andrew Reid, born 1868, Kincardineshire.  We know for certain that it is him but I believe it is pasted on to a card by Cruickshank, photographers of Kemnay, and possibly had another photograph of Thomas Reid, son of Robert Reid, shoemaker of Kemnay.  On the back of the photo card is written "Thomas Reid, John's mother's father".  So I am not sure why Andrew Reid, who was originally a shoemaker, but joined the Metropolitan Police force in 1892, would have had this photograph at all as he lived and died in London whilst in the police force.
