Hello Families,

Happy Tuesday! I trust you had a good family day long weekend. It is wonderful at this time of year to have an extra few days off to intentionally spend time with our families. I hope you found some fun ways to enjoy each other together.

Hello Families,

Happy Monday! I trust you had a good weekend. It is nice to see that winter is making a bit of an appearance again. As a reminder and as usual, please dress your child(ren) for the changing weather and send extras in their backpack.

Hello Families,

Happy Monday and welcome to February! I trust you had a good weekend.

We are nearing the 100th day of school and in primary grades, this is an important day of learning! All of our students are about halfway through the year, many have begun second semester, and everyone is in full learning mode in their classrooms, outdoors and in their communities. They are connecting with one another, sharing knowledge and experiences, embracing the world around them and working with educators to develop the skills they need to become lifelong learners.

Hello Families,

Welcome back to a new week. I hope you had a great weekend. Here we are, almost in February already!

Despite the continuous change of weather, South Nelson students have been enjoying lots of outdoor activities! The sledding hill has been very busy, and you will often even still see games of soccer happening on the field in the snow! Students enjoyed building snowmen, snow forts, and making coloured ice crystals. Cross country skiing also began last week, and students are enjoying learning something new and are trying really hard. A favourite are the snow jumps at Apex.

After a month of practice, Mrs. De Sousa and Mrs. Sparks grade 4/5’s participated in last week’s volleyball tournament at Hume school. The students worked together to communicate as a team, and showed amazing sportsmanship on the court. We are so proud of them all! 

Hello Families,

Mrs. Bonikowsky’s grade  2 / 3  class at South Nelson has been learning outside once a week for at least two hours since the beginning of the school year. We are thankful to be surrounded by many parks and trails.
