Festival du Voyageur

Our class had a fantastic time learning about and celebrating Festival du Voyageur, a special Winnipeg tradition that celebrates French-Canadian and Métis history and culture.

We enjoyed learning about the voyageurs, exploring the sights and sounds of the festival, and experiencing some of the traditions that make this event so special. Of course, one of the highlights was enjoying maple taffy (tire sur la neige)—a sweet treat made by pouring warm maple syrup onto snow and rolling it onto a stick! 🍁

It was a fun-filled day of history, music, culture, and hands-on learning, giving us a chance to experience an important part of Manitoba’s heritage while having lots of fun along the way!

Although the K-5 Christmas Concert had to be cancelled to due school closures and inclement weather, the students still wanted to show off all of their hard work! The grade 5 actors that are featured (and worked so hard memorizing all of their lines!) in this show are Landon Rivard, Tennessee Koop, Mila Berg, Piper Peters, and Skylar Bleznuk-Zary. Thank you to the staff that helped and supported our students in creating this show and (almost) making it happen.
