Save the Turkeys!

Poor turkeys don’t want to be eaten on Thanksgiving, so Division 9 students were given the task of disguising their turkey! Using anything they could find around home, they dressed their turkeys so that they wouldn’t be found and put on the table for Thanksgiving dinner.

The turkeys are now safely hidden in our classroom. *whew!*

Nelson students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6, & 7 participated in our annual Cross Country competition on Thursday, October 7th. Students ran around the whole block, ending with a sprint towards the finish line at our playground. Division 9 Grade 3s had lots of fun racing for the 1st time against other grade 3s and all did an awesome job!
