We spent a lot of time learning outside this week. We had a scavenger hunt and made patterns with things we found. We went for a walk and collected items on our fall wands or bracelets.

This week, in the spirit of reconciliation, and in support and acknowledgement of Indigenous children who attended residential schools and never returned home, Nelson Rural School staff and students will be walking for Wenjack. We encourage our students to wear purple tomorrow if possible.

Halloween Spirit Week!

Halloween Spirit Week will be Oct. 24 - 28th:

Pumpkin Contest! Students are invited to carve or decorate a pumpkin at home. If you choose to participate, carved/decorated pumpkins can be brought to school on the 24th or 25th (Monday or Tuesday) for display in our lobby. Our school population will vote on their 2 favorites at each level (one decorated and one carved) on Wednesday and Thursday.

Our annual Costume Parade will return this year. We will have a parade in the gym on Friday, Oct. 28th from 1:15-1:50. This is also the date for our trip to "Fletchers Farm". We will go there in the morning. Return to school for lunch, play outside for recess, then get changed into our costumes. They may have to wear their costumes home depending on time.

We are again encouraging no treats to be brought from home. Fruit and Veggie Trays will be provided again this year on Friday.
