Meet the Seniors!

Today is one of my favourite days of the school year when we get to visit the grade 7s in the gym and learn about all of their great accomplishments, hobbies, interests and favourite things. It’s so exciting for me to see my past students so confidently display themselves for the visiting classes.

Way to go grade 7s! So proud of who you’ve become. Division 8 students, what was your favourite thing you saw today on display? Was there a grade 7 that had very similiar hobbies /interests as you!? What did you have in common?

We LOVE Books!

Thanks to the hard work of Mrs. Roberts & wonderful volunteer parents, Nelson students all got to take home a previously loved book today. I hope everyone enjoyed digging into the stories & I hope you all share your new book with a friend!
