Burglary Northcote School
On Friday night around 7:30 Northcote School was broken into by two youths (teens or 20s). Among things stolen were a blue vacuum cleaner, a bike (adult mountain bike style) and keys. The theft of the keys has meant the school has had to have all locks refitted which is very expensive! If you have any helpful info please contact Principal Justin Perriam email: principal@northcotechch.school.nz or the Police. As you'd imagine this is a real frustration for a wonderful school with very limited resources already dealing with many difficult issues
