Community Update
It was a pleasure to attend the Redlanders Alumni Association Annual General Meeting last night where a number of new committee members joined this active and engaged leadership group. We greatly value the relationships we have with our Alumni and our aim is to support a lifelong connection to the School. Thank you to the Association for their collective work and support this year. My thanks in particular to outgoing Association President, Dr Jennifer Farrell, for her leadership, counsel and energy, which I know will be appreciated as she continues as a valued Committee member.

From Monday 5 December, we invite our Secondary School students to donate their used textbooks to the Second Hand Textbook sale. Students will also be able to submit order forms to buy current edition textbooks for 2023 at this time. A volunteer team of parents from the RPFA will be set up at the Gerard St entrance on the day to assist students with collection and ordering.
The Second Hand Textbook sale affirms Redlands standing commitment to sustainably managing our resources whilst engaging our students and the wider community in this endeavour. This sale not only reduces paper waste, it also keeps the cost of textbooks down for our families and provides charitable organisations with additional resources for distribution to communities that will continue to benefit from them. Click here for more information on the Second Hand Book Sale.
With the end of another School year approaching, the Redlands Parents and Friends Association continue to actively bring our various groups together. A number of social events still remain in the calendar and these can be found here.
I remain grateful for the guidance and support that our community so generously continue to provide. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Community Engagement team should you have any feedback, suggestions or questions.
