Weekly Update - October 2, 2016

Hello Robina Families,

Whew! This week just flew by.

Today is National Custodian Day - Thank you Miss Betty and your team for all you do!  When you see Miss Betty please say thanks or give her a hug!


Congratulations to the first Students of the Week for this School Year!


First Wrist Band Challenge Winner: Be sure to send those wristbands in and put them in the draw bin in the office. If your family is active in the Devon River Valley, please email Mrs. Kloschinsky or Mrs. Horrocks each time you do a River Valley activity and your child can stop by the office for a wrist band to put in the draw.


Congratulations to the Spirit Wear Draw Winners! Brodie Howatt (K); Morgan Bell (Gr 1); Mylee Hugh (Gr 2); Gavin Macaulay (Gr3) and Moses Gunda (Gr 4)


Terry Fox Walk:

Thank you to all of our volunteers who came out to help us once again have another safe and fun Terry Fox Walk.  Thank you to everyone who donated online at www.terryfox.ca/RobinaBakerElementary and donated money at the school!  We will let you know next week how much money was raised for the Terry Fox Foundation.

Recycling Program

Our Grade 4s have taken on the RBES Recycling Program.  Recycling is a part of the Grade 4 curriculum, plus it is a great leadership opportunity for our oldest students.   At our School Assembly the Recycling Team made a plea for help: (it's a great reminder to us all to rinse out your recycling items:)
