Community Connectors
At Raglan, our Community Connectors play a vital role in building strong, meaningful relationships between the school and the wider community. Their work goes far beyond the classroom, creating opportunities for families, children, and local residents to feel truly connected, valued, and supported.
Engaging with the local community is at the heart of what we do. By attending and supporting local events, we not only celebrate our shared identity but also foster a sense of belonging and pride. From seasonal fairs and village celebrations to collaborative projects with local groups, these moments bring everyone together in a spirit of togetherness and mutual support.
Initiatives like Sidney the Rock Snake are brilliant examples of how simple, creative ideas can have a lasting impact. Encouraging children and families to decorate and add their own stones to Sidney not only sparks imagination, but also creates a shared artwork that represents unity and community spirit. It’s a free, inclusive activity that invites everyone to take part—regardless of age or background.
Our Community Connectors are always looking for new ways to provide engaging, accessible, and community-based activities. These experiences help nurture positive relationships, support emotional wellbeing, and strengthen the ties that make Raglan a warm and welcoming place for all.
By supporting our local community, we grow together—stronger, kinder, and more connected.
