Thieves hit Sheet Anchor Nursery School
The Sheet Anchor Nursery School
Unscrupulous bandits sometime between Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning broke and entered the Sheet Anchor Nursery School in Fort Ordnance, East Canje, and robbed the learning institution of a number of items including a tape-recorder, a toilet cistern and cleaning materials. The thieves also made off with boxes of biscuits and Tropicana juice, which were only received by the school on Tuesday morning. Over three dozen boxes were stolen.
The bandits also defecated in the school building, before leaving the premises. The thieves gained entry by prizing open one of the grills on a back window, before removing the louvre panes and wooden bars.
The breakage was discovered around 07:45 hrs on Wednesday when teachers reported for work and found the school smelly and in a mess.
Department of Education officials were immediately called and they visited the school, as did the police.
Investigations are continuing.
According to sources, the school does not have a security guard and angry parents who gathered at the school said that this is not the first time that the school had been broken into and they bemoaned the lack of response from the regional administration. They wondered if the authorities are serious about the welfare and education of the young children.
Parents said that they are now fearful for the safety of their children and also bemoan the lack and or absence of adequate lighting.
The school houses over 60 students and five teachers. Some Parents who arrived at the school with their kids the morning promptly took them home.
