Remote Learning extendedOn Thursday, our school learned at the same time as all Manitobans that Red River Valley School Division will continue to be in Remote Learning for at least another week. The proposed return to school date would be Monday, June 7th. We thank all Maverick families and our wonderful staff for their work during the last two weeks. Attendance has been very good and we appreciate the engagement of our students. If we find out more about the Province's plans, we will do our best to inform you IF we hear it before the general public. our maverick song makers!Over the past couple of months, all grades 5-12 music students have had the opportunity to explore a digital music composition website called "Chrome Music Lab".

Today we had a special guest join all three of our 1/2 classes in a Google Meet to teach us more about them. Our classes compiled a list of questions prior to the presentation and had over 40 students participate in the Google Meet. Thank you to Mrs. Cheryl Crick and family for joining us with her two parrots, Monty and Rhubarb. Cheryl told us many stories about her parrots and taught us a lot of great information. She is extremely knowledgeable about the habits and care of parrots. Our students enjoyed learning about them, watching them eat a Dorito chip, dance, sing and play with their favorite toys. It was a great way to wrap up our unit on Parrots. vaccination informationA hunting we will go...During remote learning, the Morris School Gr. 5-12 Phys.
