Math Mania hit the students, staff and families of South Nelson last week. Parents,  grandparents and caregivers headed into classrooms to solve puzzles, logic conundrums and math problems. Everyone discovered that math is fun and can be shared with everyone in various ways. Students enjoyed being the "teacher" and showing what they know about numbers, shapes and logic. 

Since January Students at South Nelson Elementary school have been focusing on connection with Indigenous art and connection with the world around us. 

Hello Families,

Hello Families, 

Welcome back from Spring Break! I trust you had a good time of rest, replenishment, and fun with your family. It has been great talking with students and hearing all about the adventures that were had. We had a good week getting back into the routine of school and catching up with one another. 

Spring has finally sprung! There is no surer sign that the seasons have changed than the beginning of eight weeks of training for our annual Reconciliation Run Walk Wheel taking place in all SD8 schools in June.
