Twas another great week at RBES! Our portable classes and Mrs. Suter's grade 2s finally got to move into their new home this week. The older students got to help with the move and between them, their teachers, Mr. Coffin, Mr. Tyler and myself, we were done in just under 2 hours. Each classroom took 30 minutes to move and everyone was so helpful -- was a true showing of school spirit. It is so lovely and spacious and the students and staff were super excited. There are still some minor things to complete, but for now the teachers and students are settled and learning was barely interrupted. Feel free to have a look when you are in the building! We are very proud of our new space. The old portables will be taken down shortly!
If you have been at the school, you might have noticed some new playground construction on the west side of the grounds. This is set to be open to the students some time early this coming week. It is very exciting to have a second play structure for our students to use. This will hopefully help to spread everyone out a bit more at recess time! Our RBES Parent Fundraiser Committee is also starting some ground work to add to this small structure and to replace our aging swing sets. This will definitely be a long term project with lots of fundraising required. Stay tuned for more information and opportunities to get involved!

STUDENT LEADERSHIP TEAM:
A few of our student leaders, Mrs. Kaluza and parent volunteer Mrs. Broadhurst attended our district Health and Wellness conference - HASS (Healthy Active School Symposium) at the LRC this past week. They came up with student action wellness plans and took some amazing sessions. We are looking forward to them sharing their newly learned ideas with us!

MILK PROGRAM
Our milk program is ready to get underway! Each morning, students with milk tickets will have the chance to order a milk for that day. At lunch, the Grade 4 Leadership Team will deliver milk to the students. Unfortunately, the milk program is not available for our half day ECS students.
For $16 students will receive 20 milk tickets. You can purchase 20 white tickets or 20 chocolate tickets. Once your tickets are paid they will be sent home with your child.
There are 2 ways you can use the milk tickets:
1. Cut them up and send them all back to the school in an envelope or baggie - they will be kept in your child’s reading bag. It will be up to your child to say when they will be used.
2. You can send one back in your child’s reading bag on the days that you would like your child to have milk.
Tickets can be purchased online through your PowerSchool account. If you have tickets left over from last year we will honour them.
Hot Lunch will be starting in December - order details coming soon!
