Summer Sport Selection Term 4

Summer Sport selections for all Junior School students went live on Tuesday and the response has been excellent. As some sports have capped participation numbers (Non Rep Sports), can I remind those families who have not completed their child’s Term 4 Summer Sport nominations to do so now. A reminder that for Non Rep Sports in Winter the commitment is Term 2 and 3 which aligns with our IPSHA Winter Sport season for Rugby and Football which is why your child’s Non-Rep Term 2 Sport rolls over and continues into Term 3. Please note that Rep Basketball, Tennis and Touch Football teams recommence their season from Term 1 so those families are asked to select those sports again. There is no automatic roll over for these sports.

CIS Cross Country Representatives

Well done to all those students who represented HICES and Redlands at the CIS Cross Country Championships. In very muddy, wet, and cold conditions all our representatives had a great run. A tough run but well done to all our athletes and we wish Aurelio good luck in the next stage at NSW.

Each family should own either a school tracksuit and or a fleece that they can wear over the top of their playing kit if they are cold. If your child feels the cold they may play in their fleece if their match allows it.Any incorrect item will now be confiscated as all students have received the same message.

Redlands Pulse Orientation and Navigation Video

Our intranet, Redlands Pulse, is the first port of call for all Junior School Sport related enquiries. A video has been produced to show you how to navigate through Pulse. You can view this short video here.

Redlands Pulse -The Junior School Sport pages on Redlands Pulse will continue to be the ‘source of truth’ for all information relating to sport this term. I am asking that if parents have an enquiry relating to sport that your first port of call will be the Junior School Sport section of Redlands Pulse.

Sport Information Booklet

For all Sport information regarding what sports we offer when, how to navigate our documents, as well as information on Uniforms and Carnivals please refer to our Parent Information Booklet on Pulse.

Wednesday Sport Inability to Train

If your child has an injury that prevents them from training, please send through an email to Junior Sport juniorsport@redlands.nsw.edu.au requesting they ‘sit out’ of training for that particular session. We can then forward this to the relevant external coaching staff. Where applicable please include when they can return to normal training, so coaches are aware of this. That way coaching staff are aware of an injury that prevents them from participating at the venue but also allows us to be aware of periods where they are medically required to ‘sit out’.

Representative Sport Student Absence

If students are absent on match day, parents are required to complete this online absence form. This will allow your responses to be passed on electronically to your child’s coach efficiently and at short notice. The Student Absence link can also be found on the Junior School Sport Page on Redlands Pulse.

Please don’t hesitate to view our Sport Information page on Redlands Pulse if you have any questions pertaining to Sport.
