Many alumnae will recognise some familiar faces among Rangi's long-serving staff.

At last week's Staff Long Service Awards, we celebrated team members who have dedicated 10, 15, 20 years and beyond to the school, including Jim Golley, who reached an incredible 40 years at Rangi, and Hilary Stubbs, who celebrated 25 years.

A huge thank you to all our long-serving staff. Your dedication, care and commitment have helped shape the Rangi experience for generations of students and continue to make our community so special. 💙
