The months of May and June are hardly slow. While trying to complete the day-to-day and year-end tasks, we are busy planning for next year.
Highlights
- Congratulations to our grade 7’s who performed very well at their first festival in Winnipeg on April 27.
- Thanks to all parents (and students) who came to the Showcase of Learning evening. The goal of the evening was to have parents connect with our school and find out a bit more about what their child is learning. Each year we get more families out and the feedback received has been very positive. Please make plans to attend next year.
- Individual classes continue to volunteer at The Salvation Army. The organization has been so appreciative of our help. 8B will be going on Friday, May 5.

Over the past twenty-one years, Ginew School has hosted well over four thousand students from grades one to twelve from a variety of neighbouring school divisions.
