Expanding the High Country Campus
Thank you to those families who already contributed to our Annual Giving program.
This year’s Annual Giving provides an opportunity to support the expansion of the High Country Campus which was originally developed by the School in partnership with the Redlands Parents and Friends Association, It was opened in 1996 with two accommodation buildings and two more buildings have been added since. This was only possible due to generous contributions of Redlands families.
A few months ago, we announced the launch of a new residential Experiential Learning Program commencing in 2025 for our Year 9 students. In order to accommodate the whole of Year 9 split over two terms and the future expansion of our Winter School, we need capacity to house approximately 20 more students and 12 more staff.
Please join us to make this possible. Every gift, large or small, makes a difference! A donation of $2 and more is tax deductible in Australia.
