Restorative Practice at Te Kura o Rangiora
At Rangiora High School, we build and maintain positive, respectful relationships through Restorative Practice. Grounded in equality, dignity, and mana, our approach focuses on Reflecting, Repairing, and Reconnecting when things go wrong. We promote well-being, resilience, and responsibility, ensuring every interaction strengthens our learning community. Respectful relationships are at the heart of who we are.
Restorative Practice helps us uphold our values by promoting reflection, responsibility, and connection. When harm occurs, we work together to repair relationships and restore well-being for all.
