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.

Hello Families,

Hello Families,

Well, it looks like winter is here! I hope you and your families enjoyed getting outside this weekend and doing some fun activities in the snow. It looks like we have more on the way!

Hello Families,

Happy New Year! I trust you had a good break with family and friends and enjoyed some good rest together. This week we are back to school and we look forward to seeing everyone again.

Hello families,

It is hard to believe it is the winter break already! I am so grateful to be a part of this school community and have been overwhelmed with such a positive and warm welcome this fall. I have enjoyed getting to know you and your children over this past term!

Midwinter is upon us - a time when SD8 students and educators look forward to sharing and showing what children have learned and the talents they have developed in the first half of the school year. It's a time when family and community are invited into our schools to watch - and in many cases participate in - holiday concerts and events. 

Congratulations to our students on a job well done at the winter concert! We had elves, snowflakes, snowmen and lumps of coal galore! The winter holiday sentiment was high and everyone enjoyed both singing and playing for our family and friends. 

Our Gr. 4/5's introduced the show with a land acknowledgement and an Indigenous drumming song.

Then, our Gr. K/1 classes showed up in winter style and sang "Snowman Joe" and "Snowflakes". 

Hello families,

Well, we are into our last week of school before the holidays. I am sure the excitement is mounting at your home, as it is at school! We have a busy week filled with fun activities and are looking forward to a great time of celebration before the break.
