Last week of school before Christmas! The hustle and bustle of the season is also happening at RBES! The staff and students have been working like busy little elves in their workshops. In between math and reading lessons and Christmas Concert practices, there has been lots of art, decorating, singing and buddy activities. The classes in the new wing even found time to make hot chocolate during one of their afternoon breaks!
Nutrition Program Update:
This past week we "rolled out" our new smoothie carts! Your child might have mentioned to you that the smoothie cart visited their classroom. When the cart visits the classroom, teachers prepare a fresh smoothie with all kinds of yummy ingredients blended together. In this round of the smoothie cart, students had the chance to try spinach and avocado blended together with berries, bananas, and yogurt! Throughout the year, we hope to try out new recipes that students can bring home with them! The smoothie cart is just part of a bigger initiative at RBES to provide education about how to make healthy choices with our food!
Christmas Concert Week!
Important Concert Information
The concerts take place in the Robina Baker Gym and will not run for more than 30 minutes. The doors will open 30 minutes prior to the start of the show.For the evening concert, students will report to their classroom. After the concert, students will be picked up in their classroom. Please keep your non-performing children with you at all times.
As well we will be asking that everyone removes their outdoor shoes (you will be provided with a bag to keep your shoes under your chair) - if you get cold feet, you might want to bring some slippers or indoor shoes. Thank you for helping to keep our floors dry, safe and clean!
Comfy Couch tickets are still available on PowerSchool! The draws will be made in the morning for the shows on the day.

Note About Hot Lunch
The January menu will be up soon! Here is the link to the website in case you have not ordered before and would like to now: http://rbes.blackgold.ca/parents/hot-lunches/PLEASE NOTE - When you order, check the home room of your child - it may be last year's. Be sure to change the class so your child's lunch ends up in the correct class!
This week we continued the generosity and "giving" theme. The students were reminded of the 12 Days of Christmas Kindness. Several of our kindness students already had their names entered into a draw to win some fun gift bags of goodies (donated by school council). We also talked about how "singing carols" is a gift to many and we sang Jingle Bells and Silent Night. Next week we will start off the day with a chance to sing carols together for a few minutes.
Here is this week's KINDNESS winners:
