    Our final Principal’s Corner will come mid to late next week. The information shared will give you all the details you will need as you head into summer and be a great reference point for your family when you are planning for the return in the fall for the 2024-2025 school year.

    Our EIPK and Kinder programs wrapped up this week. Congratulations for all our EIPK and Kinergarten students (and families) for a successful school year. We feel so fortunate that you made Robina Baker part of your child’s learning journey this year. We look forward to many more years of our Rad Raptors! 

    Our Grade 4s traveled to Camp Warwa this week for their annual overnight trip. The students had such a great time celebrating their time at RBES and in Grade 4. A special thank you to all our wonderful staff for their planning and parents for volunteering their time.

    National Indigenous People’s Day was today! We welcomed Phyllis Sinclair who shared stories and song alongside Mr. Scott all day today. It was wonderful learning. The Town of Devon is hosting a very special event this afternoon/evening. Please check it out! 

    Our park grand opening was yesterday. It was an excellent way to celebrate our wonderful and hardworking parent group for their dedication for this huge achievement. 

    Finally, a special thank you to our School Council and Fundraising Society who have donated the funds for us to provide Mathletics to our students next year for Grade 1-4.


    We are almost there! Have a beautiful weekend!

    Next Year Classes

    Our teachers are currently in the process of carefully and diligently creating class lists for next year. This is a very complex process that involves a lot of collaboration, discussion and thought. Please know and trust this process as it unfolds. In late August, you will receive a welcome letter from your child’s teacher. Requests for placements are incredibly difficult to honour and are not guaranteed. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Mr. Coffin directly.

    Next Year School Supplies

    There are two ways to get your school supplies, online through School Start or using the lists below to shop for yourself.
