Reading in Secret Park

Posted on September 8, 2018 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 Indigenous cultures in the various classrooms you visited.
I can’t wait to meet my new class next week and start our year together!

In Flander’s Fields

A few brave souls from Division 8 worked hard and practiced often in order to present this famous Remembrance Day poem written during the First World War by Canadian physician Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae.
Click on the poem to see their wonderful reading of this special poem.
Well done everyone! I’m so proud of our contribution to this Nelson tradition.
