Upcoming Reconciliation Week Events 

Festival on the Fahl!

Tomorrow, the Fahl Garden will be transformed into a vibrant pink festival, accompanied by lively music and food stalls. This event aims to raise funds for Breast Cancer Research as part of our Pink Sock Day weekend. Students should all donate a gold coin to wear a splash of pink and gain entry to the festival. The lunchtime festival will be filled with fun activities, including games, a bake sale, a sausage sizzle, rock bands and a hot chocolate stand. Students can also purchase pink ribbons and socks. Students should remember to bring gold coins to maximise their enjoyment of this fantastic event. Let’s unite and make a meaningful difference together!

Redlands Charity Round

We’re looking forward to a bumper weekend of fixtures at our home venues. Students are encouraged to buy their pink socks from the Uniform Shop if they haven’t already done so and everyone in the school community is welcome to our sporting venues to support our teams.

We kick off tomorrow evening with the First Football and AFL games at Macquarie, and Water Polo at Warringah Aquatic Centre. On Saturday we have Football and Rugby at home at Macquarie, Netball at home at NBISC Warriewood and Hockey at Barker. A full list of fixtures and times is available on Redlands Pulse.
