Hello Robina Families,
We made it through our first full week! I am happy to now share the responsibility of this blog with Mrs. Horrocks. Between the two of us, we should really be able to ensure that there is a good balance of information and photos! Thanks for the help Mrs. Horrocks!!!
We were so fortunate to have the Lord Strathcona Musical Ride perform for our school this week! Each class had an opportunity to hear from one of the soldiers and to meet the horses. Our entire school and many people from the community enjoyed the performance on our field! It was so fun watching the outstanding skills of the rider and listening to the cheers of the kids. At the end of the performance, the Captain invited everyone to come meet the horses and their riders. Here are some photos and videos, but more will be available soon. Updated to add - Here is a link to a google folder with lots of videos and pics from the day including lots of pics of the students at the end when they all got to go up and meet the horses and soldiers.
