Hello Robina Families,
It has been so busy around here the last little while that I haven't had enough time to update the blog for a couple of weeks. I hope March is the month of good health. There have been a number of students and staff who have been sick for many days and we look forward to everyone being healthy again. This is a super long post, so sit back and get comfy!
I would like to welcome in Mrs. Towne who will be covering a medical leave for Mrs. Stanski for music class for approximately 8 weeks. Mrs. Stanski had to have surgery and needs a couple of months for recovery. Mrs. Towne is well acquainted with many of the students and we expect this will be a smooth transition. From all the staff and students, we miss Mrs. Stanski a speedy recovery.
Here are photos for the last two sets of our Students of the Week! Congratulations to all of those who were celebrated. We are very proud of you!
Don't forget to CHANGE Your clocks today!
Robina Raptor Girls Floor Hockey Team are Tournament Champs!!
Our Robina Baker Girls were amazing this past weekend. Not only were they undefeated the whole tournament, but they didn't have a single goal scored on them! Way to Go Raptors!!!!

I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to all the volunteers that helped make our tournament a success this past weekend. There were many staff and parents who gave their time in some way to contribute to the successful two days of this event. I have heard a lot of positive feedback on how fabulous we were as hosts. Thank you Mr. Henderson for being the Chief Organizer and Congratulations to you and Mr. Beck on coaching our girls to such a resounding victory! Please know that the rest of you are just as appreciated, but if I start listing names now there is a good chance I will miss someone as the list was a big one.
BOOK FAIR - The Book Fair will run from Monday, March 14 to Wednesday, March 16. Students will all have a chance to have a walk through and shop during a scheduled time.
Click here for a tentative schedule to see which day your child's class will visit the fair. The Book Fair will open each day at 8:30 and close at 5:00 on Monday and Tuesday and 7:00 on Wednesday. The Book Fair will be open at morning recess time, but will be closed at Lunch hour. If there are any parents who are interested in volunteering for the Book Fair, please contact Mrs. Webb at claire.webb@blackgold.ca or call her at 780-987-3705.
STUDENT LED CONFERENCES will be held on Wednesday, March 16 for our students in Grades 1-6. Kinder parents please check with your child's teacher as some of them have alternate dates to accommodate all of our students. Conferences will start after school at 3:30 and will be open house style until 7:00. Please arrive by 6:30 at the latest in order to have time to spend with your child in their classroom. This should allow you plenty of time to see what he or she has to show you. If you would like to have an individual meeting time with the teacher, please set that up at an alternate time. We look forward to seeing many of you out for the evening.
