Literacy Week

Nelson celebrated reading last week with several different events.
Teachers and classes decorated their doors with literacy themes, students and staff were invited to dress as their favourite book character and we ended the week with a Family Read on Friday morning.


Thank you to everyone who participated and to all friends and family that joined us to share in the love of reading! 
Thanks to Mrs. Roberts for organizing all the extra fun this week!
