RPFA

To show how much we appreciate all the staff at Redlands, we surprised them with some delicious pastries this week as they and our children returned to campus. 

Annual General Meeting

The Redlands Parents and Friends Association Annual General Meeting is tonight, Thurs 28 October at 6.30pm via Zoom. This is a great opportunity for new parents to hear how our Association works in and for our community.

The AGM will include:

  • a report from our Principal, Mr Stephen Webber
  • a review of the RPFA’s activities this year, along with plans for 2022
  • the election of the RPFA Committee

The meeting will run for approximately one hour. You don’t need to be a Committee member to attend and there is no obligation to nominate for positions or volunteer for activities.
