What a Week at Robina Baker!

What a wonderful week of learning and "feel-good" vibes! From university campuses to Olympic podiums, our students have been busy shining.

Grade 4s Take on uSchool

For the second year in a row, our Grade 4 students embarked on an incredible journey at the University of Alberta’s uSchool. This unique program offers our students a rare opportunity to explore a university campus and get a head start on dreaming about future careers.

I want to commend our students for representing RBES so well and thank our teachers for the immense organization required to make this happen. Well done, Grade 4!

Kindness & Golden Moments

• Pink Shirt Day: On Wednesday, we celebrated kindness by creating a special Kindness Project video. We were thrilled to debut it at our assembly today!
  Note: To respect copyright, please enjoy the video via this link, but do not post it on social media.
• Olympic Spirit: Our Grade 2 classes shared their "proud learning" about the Olympic Games during our assembly. It was a truly special moment when they presented Mrs. Kirton and me with our very own medals!

The RBES Way

This week was a beautiful display of the power of working together and "sharing the magic." We are so lucky to have an environment that is consistently welcoming, caring, and respectful.

Thank you to our students, staff, and parents for doing your part in making RBES such a great place to be!

Warmly,

Mr. Coffin & Mrs. Kirton

Order Your 2025-2026 Yearbook

Yearbooks for the 2025–2026 school year are now available to order through PowerSchool. The cost is $28 and includes a 40-page, full-colour keepsake filled with memories from the school year.

Yearbooks are printed early in the Fall and will be sent home with students at that time.

We encourage families to order early so you don’t miss out on this special snapshot of the year!

Library Corner: 

• Lost Books: If you think one of your child’s books is lost, please let me know. The amount gets added to your PowerSchool account where you can pay it. If you find it back and you’ve already paid the amount, it will go as a credit on your account towards other fees. Thanks!
• Book limits for students are as follows:

            Grades PK, K and 1 - 1 book

            Grades 2 and 3 - 2 books

            Grade 4 - 3 books

• Please email me, not your teacher, if you have any questions or concerns about library items.  [email protected]   
•  Amazon Wishlist. We have a wishlist for the library!  If you would like to buy one of these books for the library, please don’t forget to have Amazon send us a gift note with your name on it.  I like to acknowledge the person who purchased the book.  Thanks!
• Happy Reading!

Club Moo Program

A big thank you to all the parents who have ordered milk tickets for our Club Moo program! 🥛

Leadership students will be helping by fulfilling and delivering milk orders to each class (Kindergarten to Grade 4) at lunchtime every day.

Parents can purchase milk tickets through PowerSchool: 20 tickets (white or chocolate) for $20.

We hope to provide a 3-day turnaround. Thank you for your patience as we develop our Club Moo Program

How to use your tickets:

• Send them all at once – Cut the tickets apart and return them in a baggie or envelope. They will be kept in your child’s reading bag, and your child can decide when to use them.
• Send them as needed – Place one ticket in your child’s reading bag on the days you’d like them to have milk.
