We are proud of our students and their work with others, within the school and the community. Our students help peers with their learning, provide support to peers on the playground, organize awareness campaigns and events, collect donations, fundraise for worthwhile causes, help others in many ways around the school, and support environmental initiatives to improve our community and our world. The Seine River School Division Board of Trustees recognizes individual students and student groups that support citizenship within their schools and community by providing annual Student Citizenship Awards. Students and groups at Early Years, Middle Years, and High School are recognized for their contributions. Some of the applicants are also selected to receive a certificate of recognition and a financial award that is shared between the charity of choice of the student/team, the student/team, and the student/team’s school. Awards range from $150 at Early Years, to $300 at Middle Years and $450 at High School. One individual and team from the recipients is also chosen to represent Seine River School Division at the provincial awards ceremony at the annual Manitoba School Boards Association convention in March.
If you know of a Gr. 1-12 student who shows generosity and citizenship to peers and/or within the community, encourage them to apply. Application forms are available from your school administrators. Deadline date for applications is March 16th, 2023 Applications require a written submission from the student, a recommendation from the school, and may include a recommendation from a community member or organization. Thank you for helping us to recognize our outstanding citizens!

Do you know a student who loves to write, create music, dance, draw or who shows a passion for many areas in the Arts?
Each year, the Seine River School Division Board of Trustees provides six bursaries for creative students in Grades 5-11 to attend the International Music Camp Summer School of Fine Arts, held at the International Peace Gardens. Students attend the week long camp and choose their focus for the week, learning alongside other keen students in the same artistic area. The bursary covers registration costs. To see the exciting opportunities at the camp, please see http://internationalmusiccamp.com/ .
Application forms are available from your school administrators. Deadline date for applications is March 16th, 2023. Applications require a written submission, a recommendation from the school, as well as an example of the creative work from the student (photographs, CDs, and other ways of presenting material are accepted). Applications are open to any student with artistic interests.
