Community Update
We trust you remain safe and well.
Thank you to those who participated in the ever popular Family Trivia Night held on Sunday night. It was lovely to see and hear our community as we made our way through three scintillating rounds of questions, peppered by glimpses of the colourful national flags and dress of each family. It was a pleasure and honour to talk with recently returned Olympic athlete Mackenzie Little. Mackenzie inspired and entertained us with her tales from Tokyo and shared her plans to contest the 2024 Olympics Games in Paris. Congratulations to the successful teams on the night and my thanks to our quiz hosts and the organising committee, led by Yr 11 parent Maria Kinsela, for their work in delivering this wonderful event.
It was a pleasure to welcome back our Redlands House families this week. There were lots of big smiles and hugs from the students as they were warmly embraced by our staff at the gate. I’m not sure who had the bigger smiles… the students or their parents.
Thank you to those in the community who have supported the Legacy Gift Program. For those who have yet to purchase their gift, there is still time. The Legacy Gift provides the cohort with a unique opportunity to thank the School for its support, encouragement and the opportunities offered while studying at Redlands. To read more on this important and noble cause, check out the Foundation section.
If you are looking to connect with our community for support then please reach out to us here at the School or the passionate and diverse experience of our class and year group parents, the RPFA and Friends of Groups that support Redlands families.
A reminder that all COVID-19 related communications to parents and other relevant information is posted on the COVID-19 Page of Redlands Pulse. Our ICT team are also available to provide remote technical support to assist students (and parents) and can be contact at isupport@redlands.nsw.edu.au
I remain grateful for the continued guidance and support our community provides and, as ever, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Community Engagement team should you have any feedback, suggestions or questions.
