    Good Afternoon Robina Families,

    We made it through a very busy week—and what a week it was!

    Our Grade 4 Leadership students planned some exciting events for everyone to enjoy. Each day this week featured holiday-themed activities, and it was so much fun seeing everyone get into the spirit!

    Our staff worked hard to plan a variety of wonderful activities alongside concert practices. From “snowball fights” to “roasting marshmallows” to crafting galore, many core memories were created for our students.

    At our school, we believe in the importance of “taking care of you,” which is why we always encourage wellness opportunities. This week, our staff participated in fun challenges and activities to keep spirits high, and we hope your kiddos noticed these moments of teamwork and joy.

    Our Winter Concerts were a HUGE success! Thank you to all the parents and caregivers who attended and supported these events. The staff worked incredibly hard to make the concerts possible, and a special thank you goes to Mr. Scott for his tremendous organization and facilitation of the show. Finally, a big congratulations to our students—they were amazing!

    As we head into the holiday break, our staff will also be focusing on self-care. You may notice an out-of-office vacation response if you reach out during the break. Please know we’ll get back to you as soon as we can after we return on January 6th.

    Wishing you all a very happy and safe holiday!

    Mr. Coffin
