Hello LV Families,

I want to thank our students for an excellent Terry Fox run and assembly. The students were respectful during the assembly and participated well in the run. While we are still counting the amount of money raised, once I know, I will happily pass this along.

We have our annual Orange shirt day and Truth and Reconciliation day assembly on Monday, September 29th (tomorrow!). If you want more information about the reasoning behind Orange shirt day, or the Truth and Reconciliation day stat holiday, please click on the links below:

Finally, just as an FYI, Nelson Fire Rescue will be running drills up the hill from the parking lot on Thursday, October 2nd. Don’t be alarmed when you see the fire trucks, etc!
