Trip to Winnipeg- By: Leslie

On April 29, the grade 5-8's from Oak Lake Community School loaded the bus and headed down to Winnipeg. When we arrived, we had a picnic lunch at Assiniboine Park. After lunch we had time to spare, so we went exploring! We got back on the bus and headed to the Holocaust Education Centre. First of all, a lady talked to us about the history of Adolf Hitler. After that a survivor of the Holocaust from France talked to us about her experiences and how her and her families life was changed during the Holocaust. Life for them must have been very difficult. After the presentation we headed down Portage Avenue to the Imax. We watched Under the Sea 3D! It was truly incredible. After the Imax, we got back on the bus and headed to Polo Park, where we ate a delicious supper, which was paid for by a grant we received from Community Schools. We then enjoyed some time shopping! Our trip to Winnipeg was a great experience and I hope we can do it again!
