Pre-Season Summer Sport Trials
Well done to all those students who completed their final round of gradings and trials in Touch Football, Tennis and Basketball last weekend.
To view these updated team lists, Term 4 training schedule, Term 4 draw please refer to the quick links on Redlands Sport pages on Pulse details.
Basketball and Touch Football singlets for new students joining these sports were distributed last week and the hire charge ($10) will be added to your account. Students are only required to wear these on match day on the Saturday, sports uniform for training is fine. Tennis uniforms can be purchased from the School’s Uniform Shop ahead of Round 1 next term.

CIS Athletics
Congratulations to those students who represented HICES at the CIS Athletics Championships at SOPAC yesterday. We had a few students achieve Personal Bests and special mention to Jake O’Sullivan in Year 5 who broke the School’s 100m record and now advances to NSW PSSA team as part of the CIS team. We also had Georgia Bailey in Year 4 qualify for the CIS Team in high jump. A full report of our athletes performance will be available when they are uploaded by CIS.
Term 3 School Holidays Program
For those of you looking for sporting activities for their children, please see the QR codes below which are from contractors who are currently engaged in our Wednesday Sports program. There are a variety of options available within each of these Sports.
Term 4
Week 1 of Term 4, Wednesday 12 October will be the first week of Summer Rep and Non- Rep Sport programs. Please review the link above to makes your child is aware of what equipment they need to bring with them (towel, wetsuit, touch football boots etc) on this first Wednesday, if their Sport is a late return and pick up logistics so we can get off to a clean start.
Junior School Sport Pulse Student Challenge
With the new Pulse, there is significant scope and flexibility in terms of content, feedback, push notifications. The new Pulse is aimed at students as well as parents. I spoke with all Junior School students at assembly recently and set them a challenge for them to ‘beat parents’ and clock up more visits to the pages on Junior School Sport. Not only will this enable them to know what they need, where they need to be and what time but this will also alleviate the stress for you having to navigate multiple pages for siblings etc. By encouraging your child to be responsible for their own school sport they will take an active role in managing their time.
It would be appreciated if you can assist with this ‘challenge’ in the coming weeks as both they and you prepare for the start of Summer Sport in Week 1 of Term 4.
