This and That: Volunteer Tea, Grade 8 Grad, Talent Show...

Volunteer Tea Thanks

Last week we celebrated the many community volunteers who have helped us make this a fantastic school year. We couldn't do all we do without each and every one of our dedicated volunteers. Thanks to all of you, and thank you to the many staff members who contributed items to the Volunteer Breakfast.

Grade 8 Graduation

We would like to wish all of our grade 8's a happy and successful celebration tonight as they cross the stage to receive their diplomas followed by dancing the night away. They are a special group of young soon-to-be men and women who demonstrate exceptional character. We wish them all the best in high school in the fall. You will all go places in this world. Remember the lessons you have learned about school, relationships, and life in your short or long time with us.

Beach Day

Wednesday is Beach Day! It's your last chance to earn colour house points! Dress in your beachiest clothes and show some school spirit, Ravens!

JRPS Annual Talent Show

James Robinson's Got Talent! JRPS students will be hosting our annual talent show on Thursday, June 27th starting at 8:40 a.m. We can't wait to see what our kids intend to showcase! We've invited Simon Cowell, but he's otherwise engaged at that time!

Early Dismissal on June 27th

School ends at 11:30 on Thursday. Please make arrangements for your child's dismissal at this time. School buses will be running at the end of the half day to take bus students to their regular stops.

Library Books on the Loose

Two things about library borrowing:


  1. If your child has a JRPS library book at home, it needs to be returned ASAP. If a library book has met with some unfortunate end while in your child's possession, please contact Mrs. Truscott for next steps.
  2. We are starting a summer lending program from our library in which gr. K-7 students can sign out up to 10 books from our library over the summer and return them in September. Information was sent home with all studentsPlease contact Mrs. Truscott if the flyer never made it to your hands!
