Interested in Attending Wildflower?

Are you interested in having your child attend Wildflower School?

Please read our School Handbook to learn more about us.

If you are interested in having your child attend our school, you can be added to our contact list (please scroll down and fill out the webform below) so we can keep you up to date about potential openings in our school as well as any upcoming information sessions. In addition, if your child is of school-age or will be school-age for the next school year, please fill out this Statement of Interest form as well and return it to us. In Nelson, we have students from Kindergarten to grade 9, and in Creston we have students from Kindergarten to grade 7.

If your child is approaching Kindergarten age, please note that you may register them at your catchment area school (Wildflower Nelson is considered a catchment area school for registration purposes; Wildflower Creston is not). Please note that registering at Wildflower does not guarantee a space at the school). If you are unsure which school that is, you can go to http://operations.sd8.bc.ca/catchment/

You can find more information and the School District 8 registration form on the main SD8 Website.

If you added yourself to the list in 2023, your name will be dropped off the list in September 2024 etc).
