A proud member of the UNESCO Associated <strong>School</strong>s Project Network<br />
<strong>École</strong> <strong>Laura</strong> <strong>Secord</strong><br />
Extra special thanks to our dedicated patrols who have braved the cold and wind during our frigid<br />
<strong>Winnipeg</strong> <strong>January</strong> weather! They are a reliable, cheerful group who help to keep our students safe<br />
day after day. Please be sure your children arrive on time so they can cross the streets with the patrols.<br />
The patrols are off duty once that second bell rings at 9:00 and 1:00.<br />
We will be celebrating the wonderful traditions of the French culture and history during the week of<br />
February 19 – 22. Jacques Chenier will be performing for all classes and we will end the week with<br />
a school-wide assembly with all students participating in a sing-along of French folksongs. Students<br />
and staff are welcome to dress as voyageurs for our assembly. Both the French Immersion and the<br />
Basic French students will participate in the “Concours d’art Oratoire”, the division-wide French<br />
speaking competition in March.<br />
Report cards will be sent home on Monday, February 25. You will receive a checklist with student<br />
marks for each subject as well as an anecdotal report specific to your child. An overview of the<br />
themes and skills your child’s class has been working on will be included as well. Please remember<br />
that you do not have to wait for a reporting period if you have questions or concerns regarding your<br />
child. You may contact your child’s teacher at any time. Simply call the school and leave a message<br />
for the teacher and they will return your call.<br />
Many of the Junior High/High <strong>School</strong>s visited throughout the month of <strong>January</strong> and February in order<br />
to share information with our grade six students regarding their grade 7 programs. This is an<br />
important decision for families and we wish you well as you investigate these options.<br />
Registration for families new to <strong>Laura</strong> <strong>Secord</strong> at all grade levels begins on February 1. Registrations<br />
can be taken between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. As always, we will register students who live within<br />
our catchment areas first. Students who reside beyond our catchment areas will be placed on a wait<br />
list. All students presently enrolled do not have to re-register. Parents/guardians will be receiving a<br />
form asking if their child will be returning to the school for the <strong>2013</strong> – 2014 school year.<br />
Thank-you to many of our teachers who provide extra-curricular clubs and activities during the lunch<br />
hour. The Manitoba Young Readers' Choice Award group (MYRCA), volley-ball , UNESCO Leaders,<br />
Knitting and Speed Skating are all happening this month.<br />
Student ambassadors attended the international student conference at the University of <strong>Winnipeg</strong> in<br />
December. They will be sharing a meaningful activity they learned during the conference with the<br />
other students at our school based on the UNESCO pillars and human rights. We will be deciding on<br />
a fundraising activity to address a global need as well this term.<br />

safe.<br />

extra careful at all times when in school zones.<br />

Le concours d’art oratoire is a public-speaking event,<br />
which has become a yearly event for many schools<br />
across the province, including <strong>École</strong> <strong>Laura</strong> <strong>Secord</strong><br />
<strong>School</strong>. Classroom, school and then divisional level<br />
competitions lead to the provincial competition.<br />
Participating Grade 3-6 French Immersion students<br />
choose a subject of interest and compose and prepare<br />
an enthusiastic presentation. The speech may be designed<br />
to inform, to convince, or to amuse the audience.<br />
The presentation must be the student's original<br />
work and committed to memory.<br />
Students in the Basic French program are also invited<br />
to participate in this event. They are asked to recite a<br />
French poem selected by the Concours Coordinator.<br />
<strong>École</strong> <strong>Laura</strong> <strong>Secord</strong> <strong>School</strong>’s Concours d’art oratoire<br />

UNESCO has been working on making a tree of<br />
UNESCO. This tree will resemble human rights and<br />
the pillars of UNESCO. Right now our art teacher,<br />
Ms. Rallison is building the tree, so hopefully we can<br />
start putting leaves on the tree by the spring. We have<br />
also been making people that resemble all the human<br />
rights that a child needs to live. Soon all the classes<br />
that want to participate will learn about some new human<br />
rights.<br />

The UNESCO ambassadors are doing daily announcements<br />
about the UNESCO Pillars of Learning.<br />
We are currently focusing on the pillar,<br />
“Learning to Live Together”. Learning to live together<br />
means cooperation, sharing, respect and<br />
empathy. - Anna<br />
Learning to live together is about solving problems<br />
peacefully. The first step to learning how to<br />
solve problems peacefully is to listen to what other<br />
people have to say, making mature decisions<br />
and be calm and act safely. - Fallon<br />
Learning to live together means respecting each<br />
other and not bullying each other just because everyone<br />
is different.<br />
There is nothing wrong with being different because<br />
that’s what makes us human. We must embrace<br />
differences instead of making it a “bad”<br />
thing.<br />
How will these reasons affect our school? Well<br />
for one, these are things we should be doing every<br />
day. - Nic<br />
Learning to live together helps when you listen to<br />
the other person who is speaking and that causes a<br />
way to communicate with others and that’s a way<br />
to live together. - Annabelle<br />
