This robbery took place at Chatham Primary School in Melbourne.
In the early hours of last Tuesday morning we had a break in to our new building. At 4:00am a group of thieves in a white Mitsubishi van cut the padlocks to the main gate and drove in close to the new building. They attempted to force a number of doors around the school but decided to smash some windows on the downstairs classrooms of this new building. They quickly entered and stole 9 of the newer Apple computers from 3 of our classrooms. They timed their getaway well, narrowly missing the arrival of the police and school security.
It is very upsetting to think that people could do this. Breaking into a school and taking things that belong to our students is something that we are all pretty upset about.
We will certainly be reviewing our security arrangements in light of this disappointing act.
