Weekly Update: April 29, 2016

Hello Robina Families,

I apologize for the delay in this message. A power issue didn't allow me to have internet over the last 24 hours. This was during the time frame that I would normally blog about the past week.


This week is EDUCATION WEEK. As sent out in an email earlier last week, there are a number of activities scheduled for the students. Here is the link to the document with the outline of events:

Education Week Activities 

Also, we invite you all to come out to see all of the amazing paintings the students created with the 4 Cats Art Studio On Monday, May 9th from 3:30 - 6:00 in a Celebration of the Masters!

Congratulations to last week's Students of the Week!


Friday's Wristband Challenge Winner! Way to go Nate!




Our 4 winners of Pizza with the Principal are:

Congratulations!!!!!! Mr. Larson and I look forward to having lunch with you on Thursday, May 5.

TRACK and FIELD:

Track and Field sign up and practices will begin this week. Grade 1s and 2s are being coached by Mrs. Kloschinsky and the Grade 3s and 4s will be coached by Mr. Henderson. We will be looking for parent volunteers for Thursday, June 2 to help out with the large team that we usually take to RMS. If you are able to help out, please let us know on the form that we will be sending out very soon. :)

DEVON RIVER VALLEY WRISTBAND CHALLENGE:


Great news to share! Our students can now participate and do activities in our beautiful Devon River Valley and earn a wristband to go into our physical activity wrist band draws that the LRC (Leduc Recreation Center) sponsors. The Town of Devon pool will be providing passes to win in the month of June.


How do you get a wristband for the draw? We have made it as easy as pie. Simply send me an email: kathy.kloschinsky@blackgold.ca stating your child's name (and class) and what they did for an activity and for how long. Eg. My child, Jared Wilhauk in 4A did a 45 minute hike on the trails in the river valley. Then I will send a wristband to their classroom for them to write their name on and enter the draw.

I would like to thank Echo Houle for advocating for this idea and working with the Town of Devon to make it happen!

PARENT SURVEY RESULTS:

I will be sending out the results in a separate email this week. Thank you in advance to all of you that took the time to respond. It was very helpful in making our planning decisions as we move forward.

2015-16 YEARBOOKS:

Yearbooks are now available to add to your Power School cart online. They are $20 for a 32 page color yearbook. Good news - there is a team of us already working on them. They will be delivered in the early fall.

SPIRIT WEAR ORDERS:

Wooohoooo! This is finally ready to roll! Mr. Larson has received the sizer samples from the Spirit Wear company and we have all our ducks in a row for the ordering form and payment of fees. Sizers will be available in the foyer and if you are unable to come in to help out your child choose a size, we are happy to do so for you and send a quick note home. 

The order form is at this link: RBES Raptor Spirit Wear Order Form 

Please fill out a separate form for each child in your family. When paying online, you will find each of the 3 items in the Optional Fees and you just add as many items as you have chosen on your form into your cart. PowerSchool will then receipt you for the full amount. If you have any questions, please let us know. Order deadline is: Friday, May 13.
