On the afternoon of Monday, April 8th, Manitoba will witness a partial solar eclipse, an awe-inspiring occurrence that offers a unique educational opportunity for our students. Manitoba Education and Early Childhood Learning has provided guidance on ensuring the safety of students during this time, which St. Paul’s High School is fully committed to implementing.
During the eclipse, which will be visible between approximately noon and 3:00 p.m. CST, Manitoba will experience about a 50% occlusion. While the event is a fantastic learning opportunity, it also poses risks to eye safety. Directly viewing the partially eclipsed sun, even briefly, can lead to permanent vision damage.
To ensure our students’ safety while also making the most of this educational opportunity, St. Paul’s High School will undertake the following measures:
Manitoba Education and Early Childhood Learning, in collaboration with Manitoba Health, Seniors and Long-Term Care, has developed comprehensive guidance on solar eclipses, including viewing risks and safety measures. Please review the attached information to discuss the eclipse and its significance safely at home.
Schedule IV is in effect.
