Our Board of Trustees

Governance and Whānau

We are privileged to have a dedicated Board of Trustees (BoT) who act as your representatives in guiding the school. The Board works in partnership with the Principal to articulate our vision, manage resources, and ensure a safe, high-quality learning environment. We are committed to strong whanaungatanga and welcome your engagement as we collectively strive for excellence for every young person at Raglan Area School.

Board Meetings and Contact

The Board meets twice in every school term. Dates for these meetings are published in the school calendar and notices.

For all operational matters concerning your child’s learning, welfare, or school day-to-day activities, please contact the Principal or the relevant staff member first using the email addresses listed on the Staff Contacts page. This ensures your query is resolved quickly and at the right level.

If you have a serious governance matter that needs the Board’s attention, please email our Board Secretary  at [botsecretary@raglanarea.school.nz]. The Secretary will then forward the communication to the Presiding Member (Board Chair) for review and appropriate action.
