Redlands Sleepout

Yr 10 Redlands Sleepout is happening tonight. Students have been encouraged to seek sponsorship for participating in the event. We are supporting a local Youth Crisis centre, Taldumande, and also Orange Sky Laundry who provide support to the homeless on the streets of Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Students have been encouraged to dress warmly and BYO some cardboard boxes for protection.

Matthew Talbot Winter Donations

We are seeking donations for the Matthew Talbot Hostel in Woolloomooloo. The Hostel provides accommodation and support services to people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. These services can include nutritional meals, clothing, showers and basic medical assistance. Redlands teachers and students from Yr 11 attend the Hostel every Monday morning to assist with breakfast service. At this time of the year we collect donations to help through the winter months. We are looking for new items of underwear such and socks and thermals along with toiletries like shampoo, hand sanitiser, deodorant and moisturiser. Each Tutor Group has been issued with a collections box and challenged to fill it to the brim. Students can bring in donations any time before the holidays and also in the first few weeks of Term 3.
