Congratulations to Cast & Crew of Mary Poppins 2020!
Written by Gina Bonhomme
For years now, CVR has been putting on fantastic theatrical performances. With the help from staff members like music teacher Lynn Harper, drama teacher Dawna Babin, Dance teachers Cindel Chartrand and Joyce Rudisel, as well as dozens of incredibly talented students within the Performing Arts Department, these annual shows never fail to satisfy. Last year’s showing of Shrek was phenomenal, and the 2018 performance of the Disney classic Cinderella was just as amazing. This years show did not disappoint. It’s safe to say that CVR has an immaculate reputation when it comes to giving the audience a magical experience. This year’s 2020 production was the broadway musical rendition of Mary Poppins. Mary Poppins, originally an eight part children’s book written by Pamela Lydon Travers within the early years of the 20th century, was turned into a musical-movie in 1964 and adapted for a musical play in the early 2000's. In 2018, Disney released a sequel to this upbeat magical story and modernized it for the children of the newest generation. |
From January 30th to February 1st, the cast and crew of CVR’s Performing Arts Department lit up the stage to showcase the hilarious and remarkable plot of Mary Poppins. After months of hard work, determination and of course, a lot of fun, the students involved within the play truly shined and shared their unbelievable talent with those who were fortunate enough to see it.
Between the students in Tech Crew, the exceptional singers, the incredibly talented dancers and the enthusiastic staff, Mary Poppins would not have been possible if it weren’t for all of you. Everyone did such an amazing job, and these performances are what truly bring out the most of CVR’s school spirit.

Congratulations goes out to the incredible cast and crew of the Performing Arts Departments production of “Mary Poppins”. Truly, you all brought a sense of wonder and joy to audiences that will not soon be forgotten. Bravo!!

A New Mural in the Library!
This week, CVR students were joined by artists from the art collective En Masse Pour Les Masses, to create a mural inspired by our new school motto, I'm in Charge of My Learning. And in charge, they were! 18 CVR students worked together to brainstorm, plan, and paint the mural, with guidance from the artists. The mural is now on display in our library for all to see. A big congrats to everyone who took part! You should be very proud of yourselves for creating such an impressive and expressive piece.

March 23rd, 2020 - Relay for life Update
Due to the current situation, CVR's Relay for Life has been temporarily postponed. We are still planning to hold the Relay prior to the fall, at a time when it will be safe for everyone involved. We will keep everyone up-to-date via social media as well as on our school website (http://www.cvrhighschool.com/) and Relay for Life site (http://relayforlife.ca/cvrhs). Once we're through this and on the other side of it, getting together will be even more special. We still have a lot of reasons to Relay and now we have one more: to see and celebrate life with CVR's students, staff, administrators, community members, and their families.

Share-A-Pair campaign proves that the spirit of giving is alive and well at CVR!
Nearly a 1000 New Pairs of Socks Collected at CVR!Nos intervenants sont remplis de compassion et savent très bien la transmettre non seulement à notre clientèle, mais aussi à leurs proches. Ainsi, la soeur de l'une de nos intervenantes a voulu elle aussi poser un geste de solidarité pour aider dans la lutte à la pauvreté. De sa propre initiative, Shayne Meadows a lancé une campagne de bas neufs à son école. La collaboration des autres étudiants a été extraordinaire. Suite à cela, Mme Meadows a vu ses efforts récompensés de près de 1000 paires de bas neufs. Comme quoi l'idée d'une seule personne peut germer et aller loin. Au nom de tous les employés de la Société de développement social, félicitations et bravo Shayne et a tous ceux qui ont répondu à son appel ! Tu peux être très fière de toi.
Société de Développement Social January 3 at 6:42 AM |
One girl, one idea, one class, one school…1000 pairs of socks. When grade 10 student Shayne Meadows approached her grade 10 English teacher about collecting socks to help the Société de Développement Social, an organization that her sister works for, she never imagined that her fellow students would answer with 1000 pairs of socks.
Shayne, with the help of the her fellow students in Ms. Filiatrault’s English class, came up with an advertising plan that made sure that anybody who is attached to CVR in any way, knew about the “Share-A-Pair” sock drive. Through the use of all social media outlets, flyers and posters scattered all over the school, daily announcements and visits to all CVR students in their Springboards, this amazing group of kids was able to inspire the student body. The result was something they never imagined, an astounding 1000 pairs of socks were donated during the two week sock drive.
