Community Links Vision

 

At Villa Real we define community as the local people around the school, communities represented by all sorts of groups that exist between neighbourhoods e.g. sports clubs and specialist communities that support pupils with Special Needs. The transformative power of school- community relationships is plain to see through strong, authentic community connections and actions. As a school we feel it is very important to have links to promote wellbeing and mental health. We need a sense of belonging, and that sense of belonging is what connects us to the many relationships we develop.
