Congratulations to our Boys and Girls IPSHA Gymnastics team who competed in the IPSHA Gym competition today. These students have been training for the last few months with some only recently joining in to fill some gaps. A full report of results next week but some photos of our students in action. Well done to all!

In the same format as last year both Term 1 Summer Representative Teams and our Term 3 Winter Representative team photos will take place on the same day commencing at 8:30am.

Those students who are not needed in a representative sport photo are still required at school for normal classes and supervision before also going to Wednesday Sport. Our normal Wednesday Sport program will take place as normal that afternoon.

Important reminder regarding student pick up at sport venues on Wednesdays

Please take note of the following important reminders regarding Wednesday sport pick-up. If you plan to pick up your child from the venue, please notify the Junior School Sport department (juniorsport@redlands.nsw.edu.au) before 12:00pm. on Wednesday.

Any emails received after this time will not be passed on to supervising staff, and your child will return to school as usual.

Discuss the pick-up arrangements with your child each week to avoid confusion. We’ve had some children feeling upset at the venue because they were unsure of the plan.

If you have a standing pick-up arrangement, remind your child to inform the staff (Redlands teachers) during transit to the venue. This will help alleviate any stress at dismissal time.

If you or the carer is not at the venue at the time of departure, your child will be transported back to school. Please ensure you arrive slightly earlier to avoid this situation.

Pick up has to occur at the conclusion of the session and not prior. Students cannot be left behind for late arriving families.

Rep Sport Summer Sport Term 4

A reminder to check your app each week in regard to your child’s team as our teams are ‘fluid’, meaning teams may change from week to week depending on 3 main criteria:

ABILITY                    in direct comparison to other students across the sport

ATTENDANCE        any student who misses 2 games in a season unrelated to sickness may be moved

ATTITUDE               this is based on behaviour at trainings, on game day and not limited to the sporting arena

Parents and carers are reminded to check the teams each Friday afternoon for changes that may have taken place at training during the week. Students may at times be asked to fill in for other teams occasionally due to absentees etc.

Non-Rep Sport

Students were reminded about the three ‘rights’ and how they impact upon their involvement in Redlands Sport in Term 4. Students are asked to adhere to these;

• Right place
• Right time
• Right equipment

Can you please ensure your check your child’ activities to see what sport they are commencing in this term making sure they bring the appropriate gear and or equipment to sport.

Non Rep families are also reminded to check the home page of Pulse as well as their individual sport pages on a regular basis for updates.
