CIS Swimming Championships
Congratulations to all our swimmers who represented HICES last week at the CIS Swimming Championships. This was a selection carnival for the CIS team that will compete at the NSW PSSA Swim. Our students represented Redlands and HICES well with individual swimmers had some great swims. While we did not have any Redlands students make it through to NSW PSSA Championships representing CIS they are to be commended on their efforts and were recognised at this week’s assembly.
CIS Football Trials
Redlands had 3 students representing HICES at the CIS Football Trials:
- Apollo Mangos
- Jack Reid
- Felix Shwabsky
Winter Representative Sport Trials
We were able to commence our Winter Sport trials for all grades on Wednesday last week in beautiful conditions. With a quick turnaround from Basketball, Tennis, Girls Football to Rugby, Hockey, Netball and Mixed Football the students seem as excited as our coaching staff to get going. As you would be aware the second winter sport trail session with draft teams playing matches takes place this Saturday (April 2) all on site at the Junior School at various staggered times. This has been advertised in the sport calendar since the 25 January, reminders through Engage and on Pulse and is compulsory for all students to attend who have nominated a representative sport (Saturday sport) for Winter.
If your child is unable to make, please complete the sport absence form, this includes those students are in isolation. Please note that students not in attendance for the second trial will be listed as YET TO TRIAL in the lower team on the team lists that can be currently be viewed on Pulse. Once we recommence our Winter season in Week 1 of Term 2 these absentees can be assessed over that week in both training and match and graded appropriately.
Students are remined that the meeting time is 30min before the scheduled start time so a warmup, instructions can be given. Entry and exit points to the school are the same as last week. Can you also confirm pick up times with your child as we had a few children that to wait up to 45min to be collected.
Specific details can be found here, (scroll half way down) on the home page of Redlands Pulse Sport Page
Winter Sport Trials Information
Please select the following link to view the draft teams so far. It has been explained to students that if they are not happy with these so far then there is opportunity to change over the next trial sessions.
At Redlands our teams are ‘fluid’, meaning teams may change from week to week depending on 3 main criteria:
ABILITY in direct comparison to other students on the team
ATTENDANCE any student who misses 2 games in a season unrelated to sickness may be moved
ATTITUDE this is based on behaviour and general work ethic at trainings, on game day and not limited to the sporting arena
Winter Non-Rep Sports
Please note as we enter week 2 of this program this Wednesday that no further changes between sports can be made. External contractors will now invoice the school for these programs and your account will be charged.
Code of Conduct
At Redlands Junior School we belong to the IPSHA organisation for the majority of our sporting pathways. Can I encourage all parents to familiarize yourself with the IPSHA Code of Conduct in preparation for Round 1 next term. There are no league tables, no grand finals, no trophies in this association and that is what makes it different from clubs and associations.
Venue Directory
While the majority of venues are listed on the draw there is a supplementary that contains maps etc if you require more assistance in locating grounds for Saturday matches.
