‘’I can confirm a burglary at the school. The school has a close relationship with the police and the community, and the burglary has been reported.’’

‘’The WCED appeals to all communities to be the ears and eyes of the school by reporting unusual activity around school buildings. We have had cases in the past whereby the community has reported unusual activity in the night, which has resulted in perpetrators being caught in the act. Communities are also encouraged to report stolen goods – this can also lead to arrests,’’ said WCED spokesperson, Millicent Merton.
