Girls Floor Hockey Update...

The girls have been practicing now for a little over a week and have been making solid progress!  There is no doubt our crew of ladies will represent the school well at the upcoming RBES Girls All Stars Tournament being held on March 7th here at Robina Baker Elementary.  There will be a total of twelve teams from throughout the Black Gold School division competing for floor hockey glory.

Players will be separated into their two respective teams this week (gold or blue) and will be bringing home their respective tournament game schedule shortly.  If when reviewing the game schedule your daughter is unable to participate in any or all of the games please let Mr. Henderson know as soon as possible so that player adjustments can be made.  Given that we have the luxury of having two teams entered it is possible for us to shift players between the squads if need be and if we have prior notice.

Here is the remaining February practice schedule.  The remaining week of March schedule will be out on Friday.

Thank you.

No bad luck for us...Friday the 13th brought nothing but smiles and laughter as the students and staff (and even a few parents) of Robina Baker took part once again in the the Alberta Heart and Stroke Foundation's "Jump Rope for Heart" day!

With 16 different skipping centers the students were really able to test their jumping skills and see if they could make the "jump" from the basic moves to the "sophisticated skippers".

It was a great day and the students all managed to get some exercise while helping out a very worthwhile cause!

 

Rabbit Hill Ski Trip Rescheduled

Just a quick update on today's Rabbit Hill Ski/Snowboard field trip.  With today's grade four field trip it was temporarily postponed due to less than favorable weather conditions.  Given today's temperatures in combination with the wind chill the decision was made to reschedule the trip to a more favorable date when the students could more fully enjoy the experience rather than huddle inside the chalet.

The good news is that the trip has already been rescheduled!!  The new rescheduled date for the grade four Rabbit Hill field trip is MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9th  (temperatures that day are forecast at minus one - so greatly improved).  

** As we had to change the date of the field trip we are asking parents to go online and complete a new permission form for the alternate skiing date.  The new permission form is posted online in the Powerschool Parent portal and can be completed immediately.**  

Any and all payments made previously will not change and will simply rollover to the new date.

Thank you.
