Reading in Secret Park

Posted on September 7, 2019 by Ms. Watt | Leave a comment

Nelson primary students ended their 1st week together by gathering at Secret Park and enjoying a good book or two together.

I hope everyone had fun getting back to school this week and learned lots about The Golden Key of Trust, Growth Mindset and how to manage stress in the various classrooms you visited.
I can’t wait to meet my new class next week and start our year together!

~ …It’s the Last Day of School!
We started our day with sharing our wonderful Social Studies and Science posters and then celebrated with YIPPEE, it’s YEAR END free time with games and lots of Timbits and snacks!
In the afternoon, Mr. Morrison and Mr. Ng led a wonderful Graduation Ceremony. I was so proud to present 5 past students with citizenship awards and I hope to be presenting one to you in 4 years! What a great way to mark our last day full together for the 2018-19 school year.

Grade 6s and 7s from Division 2 shared their Sphero projects with us this afternoon. Spheros are spherical robots that are capable of rolling around under the control of an iPad.

Students integrated ADST into their social studies curriculum using ancient civilizations from around the world as themes for their obstacle courses.

Mr. Denroche treated us to a wonderful band concert this morning. The undercover area was the perfect location as the hot sun made the outdoor concert possible.
