Emerson Elementary School (Winnipeg, Manitoba)

Emerson Elementary School (Winnipeg, Manitoba)

Emerson Elementary School is part of River East Transcona School Division in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It was built in 1979 as a community school, to provide services to this neighbourhood in the northeast of Winnipeg. Upon the school’s opening, a time capsule was made and sealed behind a cement block near the front entrance. This time capsule was opened at the 25th anniversary celebrations in June 2004.

A beautiful mural on the east wall of the school was commissioned by the Emerson Advisory Council to celebrate 25 years. The mural, by local artist Bev Bedford, depicts two children sitting beneath a tree with the message: "Give your child just two things. One is roots, the other wings."
