Weekly Update: December 5, 2014

Hello Robina Baker Families,

It was so wonderful to see all the parents, friends and extended family who came out to see one or all three of our Christmas concerts this week. I know that all the students and staff have been practicing extra hard these last couple of weeks to practice. An extra big thank you goes out to Mrs. Stanski and her team who worked a lot of extra hours to make this event happen!! Amazing performances RBES!

Student Spirit Squad . . .

Our student spirit squad has come up with a plan for the rest of the year for some school wide dress up days. This Tuesday, December 9th is "Glitter and Glam" day! Wear your tinsel, garland and anything else sparkly that you can think of to show your holiday spirit. You can also choose to wear red and green.


Yoga

Students will have the chance to work with our Yoga instructor once again on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. (Dec. 10 and 11th)


RBES Students will be skating during the last week of December (15 - 17 and 19th)

We need 3 volunteers to come out per class for our skating times. We need your help for skate tying and on ice assistance as well. Please let your child's teacher know if you can help with either of these positions. Schedules will be shared with you and online permission forms can be filled out next week.


Assembly date change!

Due to our skating schedule in the last week of December and the busyness of the last day before the Christmas break, we will be having our regular Friday assembly on Thursday, December 18th instead of the 19th. Please mark this change in your calendars.


PJ Day

The last day of school before the Christmas break will be a PJ day. Students are invited to wear their PJs and bring a favourite stuffie. In the afternoon the students will be coming to the gym for a movie with myself and Mr. Henderson. We will be watching Polar Express. 


WEM Waterpark Fundraiser!

Our school fundraising council has booked a WEM waterpark night for our school. The event will take place on Friday, February 27 from 7:00 - 10:00 pm. Tickets are only $10 each. You can purchase tickets online or at the school. 
Click this link: http://www.rbes.ca/event_wem.html for ticket purchase information. 

This would make a great gift idea! All proceeds from this fundraiser will go to support technology purchases and upgrades that are needed. We thank you in advance for supporting this event!

Gifts of the Heart

We are working on gifts of the heart with our students during this month and each day in the announcements is a challenge or an idea for students to try. Ask your child what each day's announcement is.

Have a great weekend,
