Theft of school minibus

Stolen school minibus

On Saturday 16th November, the Caroline Haslett Primary school minibus was stolen from the premises. This theft took place between 4pm and 5pm. The vehicle has been an essential resource in transporting the school children to various educational, extracurricular and sporting activities, and its loss will cause significant disruption, and additional unforeseen expense to the school.

This was not an opportunistic crime, as the thieves came equipped with a variety of cutting and drilling tools, as captured by CCTV cameras.  Unfortunately, on the afternoon of Monday 18th November, the vehicle was found completely stripped and burnt out beyond any recovery.

Whilst the vehicle was insured, the anticipated payout will fall short of the cost of a replacement minibus. The school is appealing to the wider community to help us bridge this shortfall, by donating anything you are able to afford. No amount is too small as every penny helps.
