I love to read monthFebruary is "I Love to Read" Month and we have been celebrating daily with our K to 6 classes in particular. From Royal Readers in the classrooms to Special Guests in the library, our students have enjoyed many guests and stories. Many thanks to our visitors and staff and students who have entertained and educated - some of them were Pat Schmidtke of Bigway Foods, Jack Wiebe of YFC, Student Council Members, Mayor Scott Crick, Les Funk of DMC Paint and Fred Kelesnik of RRVSD. Some media members also visited Morris School this past week. Global Winnipeg's Weather Specialist Mike Koncan read to the Grade 5/6 classes and Tim Friesen of CFAM Radio in Altona read to the Grade 1/2 classes. Outdoor Ed Braves the Cold & Heads to Birds HillOn February 13th, the Senior Years' Outdoor Ed class headed out for their annual field trip to Birds Hill Park. Even though that day saw temps plummet down to minus 30 that didn’t stop the students, they were all eager and willing to participate. While at Birds Hill, the students took two long snowshoe hikes through the park. Some of the trails were groomed but the majority of the time the students were able to break their own trail and experience the effects of wearing the snowshoes. Along the hike they also learned about some of the animals that live in the park and their habitats. The class participated in a classroom lesson on survival in the wilderness and learned about necessary items they may want to have with them in case they were stranded. For lunch they made a bonfire and they all cooked their own lunch over the fire. All in all it was a great experience and they were all glad that we braved the cold and ventured out into the wilderness! kindergarten registration continues...Kindergarten registration packages available for the 2020-2021 school year. Please see the main office. You can also download a registration form online at https://morris.rrvsd.ca/for_parents/registration_forms. When you return the registration documents to the school, we will also need a copy of your student's birth certificate, MB health card, & any court documents regarding custody/care & control. Please contact us at 204.746.2612 if you have any questions. drop off & pick up students on TorontoWe've had a number of concerns expressed by parents and other members of our school community about the congestion at the east end of Toronto Avenue at the beginning and end of the school day. We would ask that people do not stop their vehicles anywhere beyond the far east end of our school building. Any cars that stop beyond that point will prevent everyone else on Toronto from using the loop at the end of the street to turn around a leave. Thank you, in advance, for adhering to this request. Grade 3/4's get into the voyageur spirit!Our Grade 3/4 classes headed into Winnipeg this part week to take part in Festival du Voyageur activities. The students participated in a workshop on indigenous drumming, did some tobogganing, and went back in time to 1812 and visited Fort Gibraltar. Thank you to all the volunteers and staff who made this opportunity possible. Our students had a great time! GREY CUP VISITS MORRIS SCHOOLMorris School was lucky enough to be one of the schools to have the Grey Cup visit. A number of students and staff made their way to the MPR to view the trophy and have their picture taken with it. It's the first time in 29 years the Cup has been through Manitoba, so a large percentage of the people in our building were not around. Morris School students look to the future!This past week our Senior Years' students participated in a number of open houses and presentations hosted by a number of post-secondary institutions. Thanks to Mrs. Edel, our students were able to tour Red River College, the Universities of Winnipeg and Manitoba, as well as take part in a SET (Science, Engineering, Technology) Day at the University of Manitoba. Our students were able to see, touch & feel, and ask questions about programs of interest so they are better able to make decisions and set goals as it pertains to their post-secondary careers! Way to go, MAV's! Pink Shirt Day - February 26Kids Caring for Kids will be having a Pink Shirt Day Fundraiser on Wednesday, February 26th during the noon hour. We will be selling baking and candy bags. We are also encouraging everyone to wear Pink! Pink Shirt Day is a worldwide day of bullying prevention that has its roots in Nova Scotia. It is a day when people come together by wearing pink shirts to school or work to show they are against bullying. The focus for 2020 is "lift each other up." Thank you, in advance, for your support.
