Nativity of Our Lord School

Yesterday, our 5th graders spent the day participating in the Youth Frontiers Kindness Retreat, learning about the power of kindness, inclusion, and looking out for one another.

Through activities, conversations, and quality time together, our students were challenged to think about the kind of community they want to help create and the small choices they can make each day to make a difference.

We’re proud of our 5th graders for bringing their energy, enthusiasm, and big hearts to the day! A special thank-you to Youth Frontiers for facilitating the retreat and to the high school students, many of them Nativity alumni, who came back to help make the day possible.

Today, our 8th graders had the opportunity to really start thinking about where their educational journey will lead them next year at our High School Fair! 🎓

Representatives from seven local Catholic high schools: Cretin-Derham Hall, Academy of Holy Angels, Hill-Murray, Visitation, St. Thomas Academy, DeLaSalle, and St. Agnes joined us to share more about their schools, answer questions, and help our students begin discerning where God may be calling them next year.

We were especially grateful to welcome back so many Nativity alumni, who returned to share their own high school experiences with our students. ❤️

We’re proud to walk alongside our 8th graders as they take this next step in their journey and grateful for our partnership with these wonderful Catholic high schools!

Today was a beautiful day of growing in faith and community at Nativity!

This morning, students in 1st-8th grades received a Treasury of Catholic Prayers, a generous gift from Archbishop Bernard Hebda. Father Jason Asselin blessed the classrooms as students received their books, which will guide our school prayer time over the coming months before students bring them home to share in family prayer.

Today also marked an exciting milestone for our 6th graders as they officially joined our Middle School House System! They eagerly discovered their houses and were welcomed by their 7th and 8th grade housemates. Through House Advisory, students will grow together as they take part in community service projects, challenges, and team-building this year, while learning to lead and encourage each other.

What a great reminder that at Nativity, we grow in faith not only through prayer, but also through the ways we learn to lead, serve, encourage, and care for one another. 💙

Yesterday, our Kindergarteners proudly participated in one of our favorite Nativity traditions...the Kindergarten Parade! With families lining the route to wave, cheer, and clap them on, our newest students got a pretty awesome welcome to their school community.

Another special part of the tradition is having our Middle School students line the pathway with handmade signs, high fives, and plenty of encouragement as our Kindergarteners made their way around the building. It’s one of the many things we love about Nativity, having our older students help to support, encourage, and look out for our youngest learners.

To round out our first week of school, students enjoyed popsicles with their classmates at the end of the day. We hope our Nativity families have a wonderful and restful Labor Day weekend. We can’t wait to see everyone back next week! 💙

Our Kindergarteners kicked off their first full day with a very important mission: finding the Gingerbread Man! 👀

Their hunt led them all around Nativity, giving the students a fun and memorable tour of some of the places they’ll be visiting throughout the school year. Along the way, they explored the office, library, music room, auditorium, Creative Learning Lab, and lunchroom, all while following clues and getting to know their new school.

And after all that searching, they finally found him… lurking in the kitchen!

It was the perfect mix of learning, exploring, and a little bit of that kindergarten magical whimsy. We’re excited that this is just the beginning of the fun to come this year!

A Wonderful First Day at Nativity of Our Lord!

The halls of Nativity are once again filled with familiar faces, new friends, busy classrooms, and the excitement that comes with a brand-new school year. Our students jumped right into the day greeting their teachers and classmates with plenty of joyful enthusiasm.

It was so special to see our students back from the summer break and to watch the first moments of a new year unfold. We’re excited for all that this school year will bring and grateful to begin it together. 💙

There’s nothing quite like the joy of coming back together at Nativity! Our plaza was buzzing with excitement this afternoon as friends reunited, families connected with teachers, and everyone got a chance to check out the awesome Nativity County Fair Merchandise.

Our Back-to-School event was a perfect reminder of just how special it is to be part of the Nativity family. We loved seeing so many familiar, happy faces and cannot wait to welcome our students back on Monday for the start of another wonderful school year!
