Nelson’s Terry Fox run will take place on Friday starting at 1:30pm. Nelson students will be meeting in the gym for 2 separate assemblies. The Intermediates will assemble at 1:15 and then head out for their run and then the Primaries will assemble at 1:35 before heading out for their run. Students will be asked to think about how Terry Fox set the bar high for himself when he started his Marathon of Hope, saying, “Nobody is ever going to call me a quitter.” He never quit in his effort to help others suffering from cancer, and neither will Nelson students.All this week Nelson students and teachers have been encouraged to bring in at least one toonie and donate more if they’re able through School Cash Online. We have the fundraising goal of $2,000 and I think we can make it!
Let’s! Go! Nelson!
Please ensure your child dresses for the weather tomorrow. Comfortable shoes and an appropriate jacket (and hat) for rain or shine. Terry ran a marathon a day in all weather, we will run rain or shine in the memory of his incredible courage and determination. Please also send a water bottle as students will not be going in and out of the school to get water from the fountains.
Thank you to our volunteer parents and if any other parents would like to join us in running around the lower field, please join us after our assembly at ~1:50.
