ISA Cross Country

Last Wednesday, Redlands competed in the ISA Cross Country Carnival at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre. Redlands achieved a strong set of results which included our Boys securing 2nd overall and our Girls securing 3rd overall. There were a number of top 10 results for Yr 8 including Finn Gurney, who achieved 3rd place in the U13 Boys and Tom Brown 7th in the U14 Boys.

The full list of U13 and U14s representatives are below.

A big thank you to Nick Walker, Jessica Carroll and Cameron Ellis for their coaching and support of our Cross Country competitors.

Yr 12 Winter Woolies Appeal

As the temperature continues to drop, we are reminded of those who may not have the resources to stay cozy during the Winter season. But fear not, because together, we can make a difference and bring warmth to those in need. As part of the Yr 12 ‘Give back’ initiative, the Winter Woollies Appeal, aims to collect and distribute warm clothing and blankets to individuals and families who may be facing the harsh realities of Winter. Please raid your closets and share the warmth! Gather gently used or new coats, sweaters, scarves, gloves, and hats that you no longer need. Every piece you donate will help someone stay snug during the cold months ahead. Please bring all items down to the Student Services Centre foyer and place in the yellow bin, before the end of Week 9. Your support and generosity is greatly appreciated.

Friday Arvo Athletics

This coming Friday, Friday Arvo Athletics will begin. The session will run every Friday afternoon (3:30 – 5pm) this term and next in the Undercroft. There will be sprints training with Sprints Coach Rich Frost, Middle Distance with Coaches Nick Walker and Jess Carroll and throws with Coach Jason Turner. Sprints and Middle Distance training will begin this Friday, Throws training will start next week. All students participating are required to get changed and then head directly to the Undercroft for a group warm-up which will begin at 3:30pm. Students participating in the training sessions are to wear Redlands sports uniform. This is a great opportunity for students to prepare for the upcoming Redlands Athletics Carnival and ISA Athletics Carnival next term, or to use this session as fitness for their rep sport. All levels of ability welcome.
