RBES News: Weekly Update: October 27, 2017

Hello Robina Families,

Thank you to everyone who came out for our Teacher meetings this week. It was wonderful to meet or catch up with so many of you. Remember, you don't have to wait for formal meeting times to meet with your child's teacher, you can book appointments with them at any time throughout the year.

VERIFICATION FORMS: Thank you to all who have taken the time to do these on Power School. Our school still has 62 students with forms not done -- our secretaries will be giving you a call this week if your forms are not done, so please help them out and go online and finish these as soon as you can. It really helps us with accurate and up to date information for phone calls and school communication. As well there are FOIP forms and technology use agreements that need to be updated. If forms are not completed by the end of the week, technology useage will be removed for your child as this covers safety and responsibility and we are technically not supposed to allow useage until this form is signed by the parents. Thank you in advance for your help with this.

Our book fair was another smashing success! A huge THANK YOU goes out to all of you for supporting the book fair as the proceeds result in lots of new books for our library! Ms. Caudron gets kudos from all of us on her extra time put in to add contests and make our fair so much fun for all.

Congratulations to all of the following winners:

Coloring Contest, Grade 3/4 bubble gum guess and Family Prize Draw Winner: (presented at assembly)

K-2 Bubblegum guess winner: (taken last week in library)

Family Draw Winner with their prizes (awarded in library): 4C was the classroom winner!

ASSEMBLY UPDATE:

As a finale on the theme of Respect, we enjoyed a presentation from 3A and 3B with a wonderful upbeat song that had our students grooving along and singing throughout the day! You can check out the song lyrics and a video of the students singing on the 3B blog post here: http://3ftthirdgradethoughts.blogspot.ca/2017/10/parent-meetings.html or you can hear the song by the artist here: http://www.songsforteaching.com/charactereducationsongs/dontbeabully.htm

RBES LICE CHECK:

We have volunteers ready to do our first lice check! As a preventative measure, we have trained volunteers at the school three or four times throughout the school year or on an as-needed basis to check the students for head lice. At this time there are NO identified cases of head lice in our school.

The trained volunteer WILL check your child’s head unless you complete the DO NOT CHECK my child form on PowerSchool.

On our website, we always have information on how you can check for head lice and what to do if you find any!

If you have any questions or wish to volunteer, please feel free to contact the School at (780) 987-3705 or sign up to be a volunteer on PowerSchool.
