Weekly Update: June 3, 2018

Hello Robina Families,

We have finished another successful year of swimming lessons (although a tad bit cool and rainy this past week). The students were great little troopers for the most part and were active participants in their lessons despite the dreary weather. Here's a teaser of some great photos . . . more to come in the yearbook! Don't forget to order yours now . . . we have extended the deadline to Monday, June 4th! Just go to PowerSchool and add it to your cart!



GIDDY-UP, YEE-HAW, HOWDY PARTNER . . . 

Western Day at RBES was so much fun! Check out all this great school spirit!





There were a few field trips that were enjoyed this week, but the highlight was the Newsies Production put on by JMHS. The grade 1-4 students really loved the live theatre production at the community centre. We would like to send out a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS and a job well done to all of the High School Drama students. I think a few of our students are inspired to consider joining Drama in the future.



KLONDIKE RELAY AWARDS:

Congratulations to our Klondike Relay Team! Certificates were handed out to all team members at the Grade 3/4 assembly. A few of our athletes placed in the top 10 in their event. We are so proud of them all!

ASSEMBLIES:

Our theme this month is Perseverance. It is the perfect theme for June. Many of our students have worked hard all year and June is usually when they all start to get tired and want to be done and just enjoy summer. We talk about how we just need to keep trying a little while longer.  Here is our assembly agenda from this past week: JUNE 1 AGENDA. Our Grade 4s did a Perseverance presentation today! Enjoy the clip below! Or . . . click on this link: Grade 4 Perseverance Video




CONGRATULATIONS!!! to OUR STUDENTS OF THE WEEK:

PLEASE JOIN US!!



DISTRICT TRACK AND FIELD MEET ON FRIDAY, JUNE 8

All the students who are participating in the district track and field event are practicing hard during recess. If you have said that you will be helping out for the meet on Thursday, please come to Robina Baker to help us walk over to Riverview Middle School at 9 am. (The rainout day will be Tuesday, June 12) Go Raptors! **Please note: If you already ordered RBES Hot Lunch it will be delivered to you at the Track Meet. If you ordered RMS Hot Lunch for Track Meet Day -- it will be delivered through their concession. Either way, your Hot Lunch order will come to you!

We ask that all students dress in layers: Raptor t-shirt / Turquoise Blue Shirt (if they don’t have one, we have some to lend out for the day), shorts, hoodie, yoga pants or sweatpants, a hat and bring a jacket or raincoat in their backpack. All students must run in proper footwear -- no flip flops or sandals. We have been encouraging students to use their indoor running shoes if they don’t have an outdoor pair to ensure no one gets hurt when participating. If it is a super hot day, please send sunscreen with your child as well.

All parents are invited to attend to come and watch. If you plan to come to watch for the whole day, please consider volunteering to supervise. We currently have just over 120 students on the team and this requires lots of extra sets of hands to keep everyone organized, on time for events and supervised throughout the day. We will all walk over around 9:00 am and the events start at 9:45 am. We usually finish around 2:00 pm and head back after our last group of students finish competing. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the google form at this link:

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know.
