Congratulations to the Grade 4W-4T and 4-5W classes at Nelson Rural School for being named the Winners in the Top Elementary Vocal category of CBC’s 2020 Canadian Music Class Challenge!
Their entry, described as a “sweet version” of ‘Like a Flower to the Sun’, was announced earlier today as the first place winner. A panel of celebrity judges from across Canada voted on the selections. As the winner in their category, the school is awarded $3000 to purchase new instruments.

Dialogue New Brunswick recently launched The 2020-2021 Social Cohesion Lab which aims to assist youth ages 15-30 “to develop projects in our various communities in New Brunswick that are related to social cohesion, affecting economic, cultural, social and political aspects.” The cohort of 20 youth that have been selected has been announced and Anglophone North School District is well represented with 8 youth coming from our district.
Students throughout ASD-N are finding ways to spread kindness and joy, and help their communities during these challenging times.
Two examples of that are sisters Elianna and Sophia Pitre. Elianna is a Grade 8 student at Superior Middle School and Sophia is in Grade 5 at Terry Fox Elementary.
