It makes me so angry that there are people that will do this
especially to their own community and probably where their own brother
or sister attend. We are very suspicious that the damage was done by
the local teenagers.
I am the Treasurer of our kindy with a kindergarten bank balance
usually hovering around $3000.00, we rely on parent donations of $1.00
per session which averages to around $120.00 per child a year and fund
raising by the committee. So per year we have to run the kindy on
around $11,000.00 per year. Out of that are all running costs like
electricity, phone, water, cleaning, light maintenance, first aid and
safety equipment, play and activity materials, Teacher Aid when a
teacher is away, Building and site work additions and general running
day to day running costs. We do a lot of groveling to Trusts for the
occasional Grant to help keep up with the flow and finance the more
expensive ventures, especially this year as we have had to replace
alot of the hardware in the childrens playground as well as replace
the bark and sand.
This year we haven't received a government grant and other years it
has only been $1000.00 for the whole year. The government do however
pay the 3 teachers wages except we have to pay the Teacher Aids out of
our bank account.
Now thanks to these 'Hoons' we have an added expense to pay for, we
will look at insurance first but then we have to weigh it all up and
see which will be the cheapest way to get the damage repaired.
Thanks to anyone that sat through this but like me and a few others
today we are absolutely fuming.

There is nothing wrong with making mistakes.
Just don't respond with encores.

What utter bastards , if it were known who they were I think a good
hiding would be in order. I wish some people would try to get a life
rather than just go around doing damage to others property.

That's terrible Nelly. We get a lot of vandalism and breakins at our
school. I actually was brave enought to go out and ask the skateboarders
to get off our lovely new wooden decks this evening after dark, when i
was one of only two people left in the building.
Try writing to your local newspaper, you may get donations from local
companies.

And how the hell do you explain that to the little kids that go there?
I've known of school burglaries where the kids in the class have been
really shattered by the loss of school equipment and sometimes, a much
adored class pet.
There is no accounting for the brainlessness of some people, is there..
