Inaugural Giving Day – Wednesday 21 August
This is an exciting year at Redlands as we launch our major philanthropic campaign, Giving Day, to support the High Country Campus expansion and establish another means-tested scholarship in honor of Redlander Coralie Amos OAM.
The inaugural Giving Day will be held on Wednesday 21 August! This promises to be a fantastic day of celebration and generosity. Thanks to the incredible support of our matching gift donors, every donation made on the day will be doubled, magnifying the impact of your contributions significantly.
The success of this campaign hinges on the enthusiastic participation of our entire community. We will soon share more details on how and why you can be part of this exciting initiative.

Legacy Gift of Class of 2024
‘Post Card’ from Hannah Tobin, RL21
After graduating, I pursued a Bachelor of International Studies at RMIT in Melbourne while living at University College. On the first day at College, I recognized two familiar Redlands faces, which made a world of difference and helped confirm that I had made the right decision. Moving states was a daunting and, at times, challenging task, but I was comforted to know I had Redlands alumni with me in Melbourne.
During my time at RMIT, I developed a deep passion for global studies and international relations. Building relationships with my peers and mentors has allowed me to participate in unique learning experiences internationally, such as a two-week study tour to Mumbai earlier this year.
Today, I am an intern at the Australia-UK Chamber of Commerce in London. In this role, I am responsible for member organisation and event logistics, where I have the opportunity to network with professionals in careers that I am interested in. During this position, I coincidentally discovered that the Redlands community extends globally, with the CEO’s sisters being 1972 and 1973 Redlands graduates, back when SCECGS was SCEGGS. This connection piqued the CEOs attention in my initial application and fostered a sense of familiarity, aiding in my selection process.
If I had to give any advice to current Year 12s, it would be to not get caught up in the end goal. Yes, it is important to have goals you want to pursue; however, you also have to enjoy the journey to achieving them. I am in my third and final year of my degree and again faced with those difficult questions of what to pursue next. However, now I know that no matter what I want to pursue, it will be one step at a time.
