Participating in Jump Rope for Heart helps Nelson students learn the importance of physical activity, healthy eating and giving to others.

We jumped with our buddies & friends from 10:30-12:00 in the gymnasium & competed in challenges given by Mr. Morrison.

Nelsonites! Are you ready to be JUMPCREDIBLE?!

On Monday Nelson was treated to a motivating Jump Rope for Heart assembly. We were reminded how Nelson is the only school in British Columbia to have participated in all 33 years of Jump Rope for Heart & we’ve raised over $268,188!
This year we’ve set a school fundraising goal of $8000 & also set goals to beat the 18 online registrations from last year & the 170+ students who fundraised.
