What is a Division?
Your child's class is called a "Division" and given a Division Number. There are 27 Divisions at Roberts! The PAC appoints a volunteer parent "Division Representative" for each Division.
What is a Division Rep or Signal Parent Chat Group?
The primary role of a Division Rep is to create a parent chat group using the Signal app so that families can communicate with each other, receive reminders of important dates such as early dismissals or professional development (Pro-D) days, organize gifts for teachers, or share class photos from field trips. There is more information about Parent Division Chat Groups under the About tab (Chat Group Guidelines).
Where is the Lost and Found?
Unclaimed belongings are put in the drawers under the cabinet across from the main office and are sorted, organized and photographed by a parent volunteer once a week. She then posts the photos on Facebook. Please ask your student to go and pick up any lost items.
Where is the school calendar?
You can find the Lord Roberts calendar on the school website, which lists all the Pro D Days and vacations. A 2024-25 PAC calendar, with PAC and school events, is on the way!
What streets can I use during pick up / drop off?
Driving parents are asked to use either Bidwell or Pendrell Street for motor vehicle pick up and drop off. No parking is allowed on Comox Street / the Comox Greenway (a AAA Active Transport Route with bi-directional bike lane), keeping the street safe for the majority of Roberts families who use active transport to get to and from school.
What is Pizza Lunch?
Every month, families can skip the lunch boxes and order pizza to be delivered right to your child's classroom! WIN WIN! Click here to learn more or to volunteer. Vegan, gluten free and multi slice options are available!
What is LunchLAB?
LunchLAB is a school program designed to allow student chefs to prepare food for themselves and other students to promote learning, community, and wellness. Grade 7 Student Chefs work with Chef-In-Residence (and Roberts parent) Chef TJ Conwi and Roberts teacher Mr. Brent as an additional leadership and learning extension of the school's Edible Education program. Volunteers are needed to help with dishwashing and cleanup. For more information, visit the LunchLAB website, growingchefs.ca/lunchlab.
What is the Direct Appeal?
Some families donate volunteer time, some families donate Silent Auction items and some families donate money -- head to our
Direct Apeal page to contribute to the PAC's annual project funding.
