RAGLAN VC Primary is very proud of its school environment – the grounds offer a huge range of wonderful opportunities for the children throughout the school day.

However, increasingly over the last year there have been more acts of vandalism, destruction of property and general disrespect for the resources and areas on site.

Headteacher, Jeremy Piper told the Beacon: "There is such a wonderful sense of community in Raglan that everyone can use and enjoy the school site.

"I am appalled that anyone can go out of their way to damage and deface the buildings and resources on site with no regard for the impact they are having on the children of Raglan.
