Secondary Campus Sport
The 2024 school year has begun and as Head of Department – HPE I have encouraged my staff to emphasise to students that they need to do their best at all times. By best, I mean being respectful, being committed to their learning and participating safely in their lessons. Staff have emailed home to introduce themselves, give an outline of the term and to ensure email addresses are correct. If you have any questions or concerns, please address them with us. I encourage parents/carers to look over your child’s workbook (electronic in OneNote). Also, a reminder to review your child’s assessment dates on the assessment schedule which will be active this week.
We have 3 new staff, Miss. Verrios, Mr. Podhaczky and Mr. Fisher, we welcome them to the HPE team. We're excited to have them on board and look forward to a fantastic year together at RSC.
I wish our staff all the best as we embark on this new school year.

2024 House Captains
The 2024 House Captains are going to hit the ground running as our first sports carnival kicks off in week 8. The Cross-Country carnival will take place at Goomboora Park and Freshwater Creek. The consent forms will be emailed out in the next few weeks. The Captains have been working on new ways to promote our school carnivals and sports competitions. They are very motivated and are all looking forward to spreading the house spirit at the carnivals and our sport events throughout the year.

CISSA Sport
The Cairns Inter-School Sports Competition (CISSA) will take place each Wednesday period 4 during school time throughout semester 1 for students in Years 11 & 12 and our Year 10 ADP and RLE students. The competition is run on a home and away basis, with 9 local schools involved. This competition provides senior students with many valuable team work experiences and opportunities for success in a friendly interschool sporting arena. Last year, RSC came 3rd overall. We have been involved in many finals over the years and we are looking forward to this year’s teams making an impact in the competition.

2024 Carnivals
Cross Country – Term 1 Week 8 - Tues 12th March p1 and 2 (nomination only, down at Freshwater Creek)
Athletics – Pre-carnival events Term 2 Week 10 – Wed 19th July
Athletics – Term 3 Week 2 - Tues 16th July
Swimming – Term 4 Week 1 - Friday 4th Oct at Marlin Coast Pool
These carnivals are whole school events where attendance is mandatory. There are opportunities for students to compete at a high level, to break school records and secure a position on the school team to compete at the Trinity Coast North and at a recreational/fun level to gain points for their individual houses. It is often the house with the highest numbers of recreational/fun competitors that wins the carnival, so the more students representing their house, the greater their chance of victory. Each carnival has a theme so students can dress up and show their school/house spirit to gain more points.
Extra-Curricular Interschool Sport
Redlynch State College takes parts in a number of extra-curricular sports over the course of the year. Students are able to nominate and trial for these teams which will either - compete at Gala Day competitions or after school over a number of weeks. Students will need to listen on parade and during morning notices and read their emails to receive information regarding various sports and trials.
TCN/Peninsula
If students wish to make a Peninsula team they are required to make the Trinity Coast North (TCN) team and compete at the Peninsula trials. Parents will receive emails from our Sports Coordinator in which you will need to register your child’s interest in trialling for TCN by filling out the online form. These links are emailed to parents at the start of each month. We will then email the required permission notes to the interested parents. Students need to ensure parents fill out and sign these forms, bring them to school to get signed by one of the 3 Deputy Principals, Head of Campus or Executive Principal. They will then need to take these forms to the trial.
If you require any additional information regarding sport at Redlynch State College please contact Mr Fleeting via email bflee4@eq.edu.au or phone.
