A Catholic school resource teacher with St. Maurice Catholic School is being recognized by the province for her dedication to students.
Brenda Grieve is the resource teacher for St. Maurice Catholic School s Kindergarten to Grade Six students and has been a part of the school for decades. She is one of the latest recipients of the Teaching Excellence Award, given out by the province during Education Week. Vice Principal Bob Beaudry called me for a meeting in the library and I was not certain what the meeting was about. I went up and down the hall to find out from the colleagues (asking) why are we meeting and everybody was grinning at me, not saying anything, Grieve says.

With the ever changing restrictions from the pandemic, summer camps are still hoping to have campers in some capacity during the 2021 summer.
Kim Scherger is the Executive Director of Manitoba Camping Association, home of the Sunshine Fund. The Manitoba Camping Association is an organization where we set standards and best practises for overnight summer camps in Manitoba, as well as some in North Western Ontario, says Scherger.
There are 36 accredited camps within the association. Our Sunshine Fund is where we raise money to send kids from low-income families to a week of overnight summer camp.
