What a week it has been. Drama and Theatre classes are going swimmingly – an appropriate analogy for the weather at the moment. Thank you to all the families for their flexibility and understanding this week as we shift and adapt to the weather. I encourage you all to continue to monitor your emails for any class or rooming changes and to remind students to bring either an umbrella or raincoat as they move around campuses.

Classes are going well. If you want to enrol your child please contact drama@redlands.nsw.edu.au. Some classes are at capacity and have a waitlist. 

Reminder: A friendly reminder to communicate with your child about their extra-curricular classes in the morning.

Please ensure any absences are sent to drama@redlands.nsw.edu or your childs class tutor prior to the lesson.
