🚙 Help Build Our Playground – Win a 2026 Ford Ranger XLT Double Cab
Kia ora Ashley Rakahuri School whānau,
The Ashley Rakahuri School PTA is excited to launch our biggest fundraiser yet – your chance to win a brand-new 2026 Ford Ranger XLT Double Cab while helping raise funds for a new playground for our school. This incredible raffle could raise over $100,000 for our school community.

This is a nationwide fundraiser, giving us the opportunity to reach supporters right across New Zealand. The raffle is being professionally facilitated by our fundraising partner, Artikel & Swint, who specialise in helping schools and community organisations run large-scale fundraising campaigns.
Tickets can be purchased at lottery.ashleyrakahuri.school.nz or by scanning the QR code on the flyer.
With every family helping to spread the word, we can reach far beyond our school gates and maximise the success of this fundraiser. Whether it's sharing the raffle with colleagues, friends, sports clubs, community groups, or on social media, every conversation and every share helps us get one step closer to our goal.
This is more than just a raffle. It's an opportunity for our entire community to come together and help provide something that will benefit every child at our school for years to come – a new playground.
Many people are surprised to learn that the Ministry of Education does not fund new playgrounds. The responsibility for funding these important spaces falls largely on schools, PTAs, and the wider community. With the cost of playground equipment continuing to rise, fundraising plays a critical role in making this project possible.
If this fundraiser is successful, it could become the PTA's only major fundraiser, reducing the need for multiple fundraising events throughout the year while still delivering an incredible result for our tamariki.
Our goal is simple: Buy a ticket. Share the raffle. Help build a playground.
How you can help:
• Purchase raffle tickets and encourage family and friends to do the same.
• Share information about the raffle in your workplace.
• Promote it through your sports clubs, community groups, and local networks.
• Display or distribute flyers wherever appropriate.
• Share the raffle on your social media channels.
• Encourage people outside of our local community to support the raffle, as tickets can be purchased nationwide.
The raffle flyer is attached to this email and can be printed and distributed throughout your workplace, community groups, sports clubs, or local events. If you would like additional printed flyers, please email [email protected] and we will be happy to provide some.
We will also have larger promotional signs available. If you are involved with a local event, sports tournament, community gathering, or have access to a suitable high-visibility location, please get in touch with us to discuss displaying one of our signs.
Every ticket sold brings us one step closer to creating a safe, modern, and exciting playground for our children to enjoy.
We know that fundraising success comes from many people making small contributions. By working together as a school community and taking advantage of the nationwide reach of this raffle, we can achieve something truly special for our tamariki. The more people who hear about the raffle, the greater our chances of making this dream a reality.
Thank you for your support and for helping us spread the word. Together, we can create a playground that current and future Ashley Rakahuri students will enjoy for many years to come.
Ngā mihi,
Ashley Rakahuri School PTA
