Staffing Update

We are delighted to welcome Kim Flatman to the Community Engagement Team in the role of Alumni and Community Engagement Coordinator. Kim joined Redlands at the beginning of 2019 as the Administration Assistant for Junior Campus. In this role she has supported the transformation and enhancement of administration processes across both Preparatory and Junior Schools.

Kim attended Redlands and was school Vice-Captain, graduating in 1991.

Kim’s significant local and global experience will be put to great use in her new role. She completed her tertiary education in Political Science at Georgetown University, Washington D.C, and also studied at London University’s School of Oriental and African Studies. Kim has lived in many different cities, including Beijing, The Hague and New York, reflecting her love of travel and interest in different cultures.

Before joining Redlands, Kim worked in marketing and business development leadership roles within the Financial Services industry where she drove customer loyalty and engagement strategies across international markets. In her new role Kim will continue to deepen the connection and engagement between Redlands and our valued community locally and globally.

Celebrating Science Week

As Redlands celebrated Science Week last week, we reflected on the long, academic history of Science Education and community support to develop facilities.

Science has been taught at Redlands since its beginning in 1884. The first Yr 12 student graduated in Physics in 1887 and the first Science Room was built in 1908 for botanical and geological specimens collected in early field trips.

Since the first Science Room in Redlands House, science laboratories have been located in numerous buildings around the School, including the present day IB office in the Liggins building. The Redlands Science programme was finally given the prominence it deserved with the opening of Redlands first dedicated Science Block in 1967, originally called the Wyndham Building, refurbished and renamed the Liggins Atrium/Roseby Building in 2007 supported by donations from the Redlands community.

We are very fortunate at Redlands to have a community with a strong tradition of generously giving back to the School. It is through the generosity of previous families that current and future students are able to enjoy today’s Science facilities and resources.

On behalf of Yr 12 students I would like to thank everyone who has supported their final initiative and purchased one or more memorable Class of 2021 Redlands Tea Towels and Tote Bags designed by this cohort and selected staff.
