The Gr. 4/5 students hosted a "Cardboard Arcade" for our school this week. It was a HUGE success! 

Ms. Finnie's Gr. 2/3 class had a day full of exploration, adventure and learning about our local environment, history and culture. 

The Grade 4/5's completed an Art Starts project where they were introduced to the magical world of stop-motion animation, and created a short animated film. The project combined curricular elements of space and the earth's rotation with stop-motion creation. 

The school year is coming to a close in a few weeks and hundreds of high school graduates across our district will reach out their hands to accept their Certificate of Graduation or B.C. “Dogwood diploma.”

South Nelson sure has talent! Thank you to all who came out to the 2024 South Nelson Talent Show. It was filled with a great line up of student performers. We started out with class performances in which students sang, and played bucket drums or ukuleles. Our primary classes did a song with actions.

On Friday May 10^th students at South Nelson had the privilege of learning and playing a few traditional Indigenous games from Vanessa Lozecznik. Vanessa works with local Elders to learn about these traditional games and has received permission to share them with her students.

The Gr. 2/3s in Ms. Finnie’s class have been learning about space and the natural environment. To  demonstrate their learning, they created puppet shows! They were on various topics, such as the solar system, fungus, and habitats. Did you know that puppet shows can take various forms? Some groups did a shadow puppets show using an older projection screen.
