Robyn TOBECK Obituary

Miss Tobeck, what a teacher, almost 50 years on I remember Oaklands School...thank you for believing in the fat kid and making her feel good about being me.

rip miss T you were an amazing teacher. I remember when in year 7 on athletics day me and some friends called you a legend and you said "I'm not dead yet". you truly are a legend now. You will be heavily missed.

Deepest Sympathy to all on the passing of dear Robyn. Our memory of Robyn is on & off the Tennis Court. She was a very friendly lady and a great sport. We know she was very well respected by the Community. From North Canterbury Veterans Tennis Sub-Association. Colleen Bailey & Alison Yellowlees.

I was lucky enough to be taught by Miss T in Form 1 and 2, one of the best teachers who put up with a bit of cheek from me, which I think she enjoyed. My daughters were so lucky to also be taught by her, and she recognised the family connection straight away. She cared so much for her students and the school. Miss T you are one of a kind, and are greatly missed.

I was lucky enough to have Robyn (Miss T) as both my teacher as well as be first hand witness to her sporting prowess on the badminton court in later years. Robyn, your cheery demeanor & positively will be missed by all those that were lucky enough to have been around you. Condolences to all of the family

Dear Tobeck family

I very much wanted to be at Robyn's funeral today. I found out last evening however that I had Covid and so I had to stay away.

Robyn taught me for three years at Lincoln Primary - Standard 4, Form 1 and Form 2. These were incredibly important years in my life. Robyn was always supportive, caring and full of wisdom. She has been one of the biggest influences in my life. It has thrilled me that our oldest daughter Evie was taught by Robyn in the last couple of years.

While Robyn's funeral is a chance to remember her as a person and the good that she did in the local community, let me say this: when I'd heard that she has passed away I felt that a part of my childhood had ended too. That must surely be the mark of an outstanding teacher.

You all remain in my thoughts and prayers.

Roby we are going to miss you so much , you´re the glue that keeps us all together . Love you forever Jenny Doug and Family xxRIP

I remember you from school and you were a amazing person who always helped with sports and gave me so much confidence

Miss T taught my dad and was my teacher for two years in primary school and my sisters teacher last year. You touched many lives with your teaching and it showed how much you enjoyed being a teacher with your positivity in the class. I feel so privileged to have been taught by you. You always brought so much laughter and fun to the class. Always making students have a laugh and putting smiles on their faces with your jokes and sense of humour no matter the day. You will be greatly missed and remembered as an amazing teacher and person forever.

Sympathy to Paul & family, all of Robyn´s family (including her Aunties who I remember from Tai Tapu days) and friends.

Miss T was an incredible collaborative partner. Always ready with words of support and encouragement. She was not only a great teacher to our tamariki but an incredible mentor to kaiako in the classroom and on the sports field. Rest in peace Robyn, you will be missed but always remembered.

Much Aroha to your whanau.
I only knew Robyn in her NZEI role and she was so present and supportive over so many years.
I only heard of her passing today and wanted to share my condolences with her whanau.

Robyn was the first female secretary of the Christchurch District Young farmers club in 1978. She was also the first female secretary for the South Island Young Farmers Field Days held at Tai Tapu in 1979. I was the Chairman of both committees at the time and Robyn was a great pleasure to work along side.
My condolences to Paul and his family for their sudden loss.

40 years ago miss T taught me and then my two sisters, now years later she has taught my nieces. Amazing teacher and suck a cherished memories we have of our days at Lincoln. Fly high with the angels miss T

One in a million - a LPS legend
Robyn I will miss your positivity, dedication to our school and students and most of all your incredible sense of humour. It was such a privilege to have been a student in your class many years ago and then to teach with you. You will be greatly missed and remembered forever.

Just a lovely, lovely lady. A wonderful, warm hearted and passionate teacher ....we were blessed to have you teach our children. Rest in peace Robyn.

Miss T was an amazing techer she always brought a smile to all her students faces no matter the day. Rest in peace Miss T

You were always so willing to give in every way without question. Such a generous heart. Robyn, we will miss you.

You were one in a million Robyn and will leave a huge hole is so many people's lives.

Robyn was always a cheery bright face on the school crossing at Lincoln Primary and I was always surprised and impressed with how she knew my son's name and always said good morning to him. It was very special, and will be warmly remembered. Sending our condolences to your family.

I remember Robyn (Miss T) with the utmost affection. She would have to be the best teacher I had at school and luckily for me she also taught my two children whom both loved her. She gave so much of herself to the children and always had a smile on her face and the best laugh. Sending love to her family, she will be greatly missed.

Fond memories through netball and of late through Lincoln primary school with our granddaughter. Thank you for being such an inspiration to so many children over the

A lovely lady whos laugh lit up the room and who will be so very missed.
