Kia ora whānau, On Sunday around 5:55 PM, four young women came onto our school site, acting aggressively and appearing intoxicated. One entered our whare despite being asked not to, becoming abusive toward our visiting school group. Shortly after, the same group was seen at Fraser Cove, where they verbally abused and threatened both our staff and members of the public. We need your help identifying these individuals so we can formally trespass them from our kura and ensure the safety of our visitors, staff, and community. If you have any information, please send us a private message or contact the school office directly. Ngā mihi for your support in keeping everyone safe.
