The Kelsey School Division in The Pas, Manitoba, has launched a digital showcase of its students’ holiday spirit by hosting school Christmas performances on its official website. The initiative provides families and community members who are unable to attend in person with a convenient way to view the seasonal festivities from home.
The production, titled KSD Christmas Performances Program, was added to the division’s media library in early December 2025. It serves as a central hub for the various musical and theatrical celebrations held across the division’s schools, which include Margaret Barbour Collegiate Institute (MBCI), Kelsey Community School, and École Opasquia School.
The decision to share these recordings publicly aligns with the division’s mission to foster a respectful and enthusiastic school community. By digitizing the performances, the division ensures that extended family members, including those living outside of The Pas, can participate in the students’ milestone events. The “School Christmas Concert/Performances” page is currently live and accessible to the public.
Privacy and Media Considerations
While the video is available for public viewing, the Kelsey School Division maintains strict guidelines regarding the distribution of student images and performances. Local media and residents are reminded that parental and guardian consent for public distribution is managed directly by the division.
Additionally, as the Kelsey School Division continues to monitor a previously reported cybersecurity incident, the IT department and administrative staff remain focused on ensuring that all digital communications and media uploads remain secure. Anyone wishing to broadcast or republish segments of the student performances should first verify consent and copyright restrictions with the division office.
