Brock Corydon School is a great place to learn.
The staff at Brock Corydon is a dedicated, enthusiastic group of
professionals who are committed to fostering a love and excitement of learning.
A well-rounded education is offered in a supportive, academically
challenging and inter-cultural environment.
The outcomes and standards of Manitoba Education and
Training curricula are the bases of all subjects in Kindergarten to Grade 6.
Literature, mathematics, science, social studies, active fit lifestyles,
art and the aesthetics are integrated throughout all curricula.
Learning is child centered and based on a developmental continuum, which
grows in sophistication and complexity from Kindergarten through Grade 6.
We assess for growth to measure what a child knows and to
determine specific learning goals for individuals and groups.
Assessment is based on a combination of teacher observation, student
work, projects, teacher made and standardized tests, and student
self-evaluation.

setting. Throughout the year there
are numerous opportunities for classes from both tracks to study units together,
embark on joint projects or explore each other’s customs and holidays.

All provide meaningful opportunities to learn and play together.
