Happy Friday Citizens of Nellie!

We have some exciting field trips coming up this spring! If you would like to volunteer with your child's class, please ensure you have valid police information clearance and that your name is current in our CBE Security Clearance database. If you are not registered to volunteer yet, follow the steps outlined here: CBE Volunteer Clearance Process  

I am always happy to meet with parents to answer any questions. Please reach out!

  • Are you handy? We need your help.  We are looking for a few handy individuals who would be interested in helping us assemble our new Gaga ball pits in the spring. Learn about the exciting Gaga ball game here:  Gaga ball becoming the great playground equalizer. Commitment would be a few hours one evening - if the instructions are correct!

New - Indigenous Family Resource Guide


​The CBE Indigenous Education Team has created a NEW Indigenous Family Resource Guide to support Indigenous students and families within the CBE to know about and be able to access culturally relevant, holistic community services and supports. Schools can share the guide and/or information about specific resources with students and families as needed. 

This Indigenous specific guide can work alongside the existing CBE Family Resource Guide. Families can also access 211 Alberta, a 24/7 helpline for an up-to-date online database of support and services.
