The centre has been a stalwart of the Raymond Terrace community, supporting many events and activities over the years.

The centre has worked with schools and community groups for many years to create positive opportunities for as many people as they could.

From hosting the Positive Behaviour and Learning Program to donation boxes for those in need, MarketPlace and the team have helped our community, under the leadership of Colleen Mulholland-Ruiz.

This week in tribute to Colleen, the Drum Corp from Irrawang High School dropped in to perform and honour Colleen for all the assistance and care that she has shown to the students at the school over the years, many of whom Colleen has watched grow up.

Lue Fagan of Irrawang High School told News Of The Area, “Irrawang High School’s CAPA Drum Corps gave Colleen a big, and very teary surprise on Wednesday with an unannounced short farewell performance.

“As you know the centre has sold and Colleen and the team have been incredible supporters of the Raymond Terrace Community Positive Behaviour for Learning program, our whole school and specifically the Drum Corps,” she said.
