Yr 10 Redlands School Sleep Out

Yr 10 have made a wonderful start to their gathering sponsorship for their Redlands School Sleepout coming up at the end of this term. We will be hearing from guest speakers representing Taldumande and Orange Sky Laundry about the services they provide to young people at times of crisis or people living rough on the streets. Students have been encouraged to seek sponsorship for this event so that we can make a financial contribution to these organisation. Thank you to the many contributors so far and the supportive feedback has also been very much appreciated. If you would like to support Yr 10 students and these organisations, you can use the following links to make a contribution.

Matthew Talbot Winter Donations Appeal – Socks Undies and Toiletries

We are still seeking donations for this annual appeal. The Redlands community has consistently made a very valuable contribution to Matthew Talbot Hostel for homeless men in Woolloomooloo. Please consider making a small contribution of socks, underwear or toiletries. These can be dropped off at the Secondary School Office, brought into school by students during Tutor lessons or to the Staffroom in the Liggins building. This will mean that the Hostel has a good supply of these items for the coming months.

Travelling Overseas in the Holidays?

Please keep in mind that if you are travelling during the holidays and have an opportunity to pick up toiletries from the airline or hotels, we can pass these on to the Matthew Talbot Hostel as well.
