Grassy Park school burgled twice

By Odette Ismail

Montaqu Gift Primary was broken into twice in four days. The students and teachers at the school in Grassy Park told the Cape Argus that they were very upset.

The robbers broke in through the roof of the school last Wednesday and stole a computer and two towers. After three days the school was under fire again as the robbers returned to steal two more computers.

The computers were not connected yet as the school just received it as a donation by Rotary clubs. Principal Daphne Barlie said that pupils and teachers were put off with the incident.

While the school was trying to fix up the roof, another burglary took place through the roof again.

Teachers are taking computers home to avoid them being stolen again. The Grassy Park police are offering a reward for any information on the burglaries.
