LVR Weekly Update - 24May25 (Copy)

Good day out there, LVR Community.
This week's image is the poster for next Friday's LVR Art Spring Dance, Drama, and Music performance put on by Ms. MacMillan, Ms. Shippit, and Ms. Matosevic's classes at the Capitol Theatre. For details, please visit https://lvr.sd8.bc.ca/announcements/spring-art-performance.
Biking students, please sure to wear helmets! There have been a number of bike accidents in Nelson over the past few years involving youth and helmets have prevented serious brain injuries.
Bussing families, be sure to read the announcement for registering for bussing for the 2025-26 school year. All students requesting SD8 school busing privileges MUST register annually.
Please see the updated schedule for LVR School Counsellors below and welcome to Ms. Claire Hewson who is with us on Wednesdays & Fridays.
