Residents rally after Far North schools burgled

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A trailer load of top soil was taken from the children's garden beds at Ahipara School while around $2000 cash was stolen from Kaeo Primary School during a break-in overnight on Friday.

Kaeo Primary School Principal Paul Barker said he is "gutted" about the incident, especially as some of the money was raised during a school market day for a Year 6 graduation dinner and dance evening at the local rugby club.

Residents have offered support and donations for the small school, north of Kerikeri. Read more and find out how you can help here.
