Bookbeast Sheets

Every student in Division 8 is expected to fill out their Bookbeast Sheet every night after they read. If your sheet gets lost, please print a new one off at home. If you do not have a printer, please let Ms. Watt know immediately.
To print off a new one, visit the Nelson School website at https://nelson.burnabyschools.ca/ . Click on the LIBRARY tab along the top of the page and then choose BOOK BEAST SHEETS in the drop down menu.

I can’t wait to celebrate everyone’s 50 Night Sheet being handed in next month!

M4326BBC238AA46E089C75CB9B99D7269rs. Roberts is looking for volunteer parents / family members to help her in the library during next week’s book fair. No experience needed!
~ Before school, at lunch, or after school ~

If anyone has time during the day or knows another care giver at Nelson who might like to help out, please let myself or Mrs. Roberts know! Any amount of time is helpful and would be very much appreciated.  Thank you! Ms. Watt🙂

Summer Reading Program


Who knew reading 15 minutes a night for 50 nights could lead to a medal!?
Kennedy and I had so much fun hanging out with Mrs. Roberts and her daughter Rachel at the Burnaby Public Library this morning.
I was so excited to see Lucas and Casandra there to receive their medals too!
Thank you so much to the Burnaby Public Library for the fun morning and the medal for doing what Kennedy and I love!

Readers are Leaders

Sept. 1st!! I hope everyone has been reading 15 mins a day for 50 days this summer like Kennedy and me!
If so, you’ll be rewarded with the highly coveted summer reading club medal! I can’t wait to see all of you at the medal ceremony and pancake breakfast on Sat., Sept. 7th.

Readers Are Leaders

Every year we celebrate students who achieve 200 nights of Bookbeast Reading. In recent years Mrs. Roberts has introduced a new 250 nights level and it takes a special student with great dedication and responsibility to achieve this. What an awesome accomplishment. Way to go Division 8 250 Night Readers! I’m so proud of you!

Bookbeast Success!!
