Mrs. C's class had the most amazing opportunity to grow butterflies! The students we delighted as the tiny little caterpillars arrived in late April. Watching their excitement and curiosity as the caterpillars went through their life cycle changes was so much fun! When we released them last week the students were so proud.

Hello Families, 

Happy spring! We are now fully into May and everyone is happy to know that the better weather is here. There are so many great things happening outdoors these days. I can’t believe we are heading into our last two months of school. There are already so many fun things on the go.

It feels like the school year speeds up this time of year!  May is when 2024 grads who have applied for scholarships are going through adjudication for their awards, while others are preparing to embark on their first steps in a career, apprenticeship, job search, gap year or post-secondary educational journey. 

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.
