Nellie in the Know Feb. 8 | New Website, Parking Lot, Jump Rope for Heart, School Council

Happy Friday Friends and Family of Nellie,

Our website is transferring over to a new format. Until such time Nellie in the Know will be an attachment in School Messenger and not a web story.

Science Fair, Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, and Jube School were certainly the highlights of the week. Grade 2 students spent the week at the Jubilee Auditorium learning in and through the arts. Students interacted with very talented artists and had the opportunity to do school in the wonderful theatre. Our students in grades 4-6 went to experience and appreciate live music at the CPO. Wow…what a treat. On Wednesday and Friday our Science Fair students walked us all through their incredible science experiments. They were so well done…outstanding.

A great big thank you to all of our staff and volunteers who worked so hard this week to create such incredible learning opportunities for our students.

Sincerely,

Darren Dyck, Principal

Parking Lot

Thank you to all of the folks who have changed their routines because of the parking lot closure. We will be reopening the parking lot this coming week but please remember that the parking lot is not intended to be a kiss and drop location. Families are reminded that students should be dropped off on Palliser Drive or in the alley behind the school. Please let’s keep our children safe!

Jump Rope For Heart

This Wednesday Feb. 14 we will hold a Jump Rope for Heart Final assembly. During the assembly our final donation total will be shared. If we reach our $2,000 goal, Mr. Dyck has graciously volunteered to take FOUR pies in the face from 4 students! Additionally, students will demonstrate their jump rope skills and there will be "Jump Rope for Heart" swag prizes for students who have shown dedication and improved their jump rope skills. Parents are welcome to attend. Please help us reach our goal by sending money to the office or simply donating on line. https://jumpropeforheart.crowdchange.ca/52088
