North Shore to Welcome Reddam House

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—A new campus for Reddam House will be opening in North Sydney with Dave and Dee Pictairn announced as the first and founding heads of the institution's newest campus. Located at the 1972 historical Simsmetal House, the eight-storey building will accommodate more than 1350 students ranging from Kindergarten to year 12, and the school will be co-educational and non-denominational. Dave and Dee Pictairn have been the current principals of the original Reddam House Sydney campus in Woollahra for more than fifteen years, and also help set up the first Reddam school in South Africa more than 20 years ago. The new campus in North Sydney will include outdoor terraces with play areas, multiple libraries, music studios, dance studios, multipurpose breakout spaces, a gym, sports hall, and auditorium. I would like to wish Dave and Dee and all the first cohort of students who will be starting at Reddam House from Term 1 next year all the very best for this exciting time ahead.
