Congratulations to Mrs. De Sousa's team who competed in the finale of the Reading Link Challenge at Trafalgar on May 6. After working hard over many months to read 5 books, they competed in groups of teams to answer questions about their reading.
Welcome to May! We are already here at the end of the school year and the next two months will fly by! There are lots of great activities planned in the upcoming weeks.
We are almost at the end of April! This week we have early dismissals and next week it will be May! The school year is flying by and these last couple months are already booking up quickly with year end learning activities and events.
See below for this week’s update for what our students have been up to these last couple of weeks.
Happy Spring and welcome back from spring break! It is hard to believe we are already into the last term of our school year. These next few months will be very busy with year end academic programming, field trips, and events.
It was great to have everyone back last week and to hear all their stories about their holiday. Learning got well underway.
In the grade 2/3 class we have been working on practicing gratitude. The students created gratitude flowers, with each petal representing something for which they are grateful. As a group, we created a “gratitude garden” with the students colouring and cutting out the letters and adding butterflies. This latest project is part of a bigger goal to learn how to regulate and be ready to learn.
Welcome to a new week and happy March! Two weeks until spring break. I know we are all looking forward to some time off, the spring weather, and perhaps some travel.
South Nelson Students had a great showing in Pink on Wednesday Feb. 28 for Pink Shirt Day! Throughout the week classes did activities and learning about anti-bullying, kindness and friendship. Our student leaders planned and led our assembly. We learned what bullying is, what bullying is NOT and the impact of kindness.
