Nellie in the Know - February 23, 2024
Happy Friday Friends and Family of Nellie,
What an exciting week at Nellie today. Our Kindies went on a long community walk, our grade 1 students celebrated 100 days of school and went to the Science Centre, we had fun lunch and PAC met last night. We enjoyed the warm weather, played and learned outside and continued to build a strong sense of community at our great school
A big thank you to our PAC members, our field trip volunteers and our fun lunch volunteers. Your support of the school is invaluable.
Sincerely,
Darren Dyck, Principal
Pink Shirt Day
On Wednesday February 28th all students, staff and volunteers are encouraged to wear a pink shirt to school. Together we stand up against bullying and miss treatment and remind ourselves of how important it is for everyone to feel honoured, respected and cared for.
