In honour of Flag Day Nelson Rural School held a special Assembly with draws for those wearing red and white and answering trivia questions correctly. This event was a warm up to our Spell A Thon Fundraiser and Spelling Test being held on Thursday Feb. 17th.
Four prizes of Canadian shirts, mittens, movie passes and Raiders School Shirts were given out at each grade level.
Good Luck to ALL students...Go Raiders Go!
