Juniper students got a better understanding of human rights, during a recent trip to Winnipeg.

The 33 gr.8 students travelled south, where they were partnered up with Winnipeg students from Hugh John Macdonald school.

The students biked around the City over their 3 day trip, seeing some of the province’s most important buildings, including the Manitoba Legislative Building, and the Human Rights Museum.

While at the Manitoba Legislative Building they were recognized by the speaker during Question Period, and were presented a members statement from MLA Steve Ashton.

The students also visited the University of Manitoba, which Principal Lucy Mayor says will hopefully get the students to start thinking about post-secondary education.
