Music Gold<br />
Congratulations to <strong>Redeemer</strong> Music for achieving our best ever<br />
results at the Redlands Eisteddfods held early in Term 3. By the<br />
end of a very busy fortnight, <strong>Redeemer</strong> had collected 7 first<br />
places, 3 seconds, 1 third and a highly-commended. This is our<br />
greatest result at the Redlands Eisteddfod, particularly as all<br />
Instrumental Music groups won their sections.<br />

Interview John Howard:<br />
ABC Student Press Call<br />
Six <strong>Redeemer</strong> students from Years 5 to 12 had a once in a<br />
lifetime opportunity to interview former Prime Minister John<br />
Howard on Monday 5 September as part of the 612 ABC Student<br />
Press Call segment. Questions ranged from: “Outside of politics,<br />
who is your hero?” to… “What do you think is the biggest<br />
challenge facing world leaders today?”<br />

Operation<br />
Christmas Child<br />
Shoe Box Collection<br />
A Cool Place!<br />
The Community Service Committee once again coordinated the<br />
annual appeal for the Operation Christmas Child Shoe Box appeal.<br />
This is a project organised by Samaritan’s Purse where everyone<br />
in the Home Group is encouraged to bring in small gifts for a girl<br />
or a boy. This year we packaged over 75 boxes to be distributed<br />
to children in Papua New Guinea and Vietnam. This will no doubt<br />
make their Christmas a little brighter! Thank you to the <strong>Redeemer</strong><br />
Community Service Committee for organising <strong>this</strong> annual appeal.<br />
<strong>Redeemer</strong> is very appreciative to the Parents and Friends<br />
Association for their support of the college with the generous<br />
contribution of $100,000 towards air-conditioning of the Middle<br />
School. This contribution now ensures that all classrooms from<br />
P-8 are fully air-conditioned. 50% of Senior School teaching<br />
spaces are currently air-conditioned, with further classrooms to be<br />
rolled out in the future with the college’s ongoing refurbishment<br />
program. Again we thank the P & F for their support and for <strong>this</strong><br />
significant contribution.
