Colours Embroidery Reminder

Any Yr 10 student who has an award to embroider on their blazer, please make sure that you bring your blazer and the relevant information to the Winter Sleepout (blazers will be handed in on Friday).

Paul Dillon Talk

On Tuesday, our Yr 10 students listened to Paul Dillon speak from a harm minimisation perspective on alcohol and illegal drugs. Paul Dillon is the Director and founder of DARTA and he is passionate about ensuring that the community has access to accurate and up-to-date alcohol and other drug information. Paul’s aim is to help students to make informed and measured decisions, to take increasing responsibility for their behaviour and to consider the consequences of their actions. His presentation was highly informative and engaging, tailored for the developmental stage of our Yr 10 students. He encouraged students to download the Emergency Plus App which allows the ambulance service to locate the caller using GPS. Please do speak with your sons and daughters about what was discussed by Paul Dillon, ongoing conversation is always the best form of educating our teens.

CIS Cross Country

Last Thursday, Emma Mahon, James Barrelle, Olivia Donoghue and Jonah Koppers competed at the CIS Cross Country Carnival. A big congratulations to Emma Mahon who placed 3rd in the 16 years girls 4km. Emma has automatically qualified for the NSW All Schools. Olivia Donoghue placed 42nd in the 16 years 4km, James Barrelle placed 28th and Jonah Koppers placed 30th in the 16 years boys 6km. A strong result by all runners!

A friendly reminder that Athletics training will be in full swing on Friday afternoon at Balmoral Oval. A bus leaves the Adams Centre at 3.30pm and returns back to Redlands at 5.30pm. This Friday would be a good chance to get some practice training of sprints, middle distance and field events before the school Athletics Carnival next Tuesday.
