More school computers stolen

TEACHERS at a Cranbourne primary school are reeling after its seventh break-in in three months.
Eight computer monitors were stolen from Courtenay Gardens Primary School about 11.45pm on Friday.
Police said thieves kicked a door in to steal the computers, worth a total of $3000.
They also damaged several other computers in their attempt to remove them.
Assistant principal Nicole Bottriel said it was disappointing that these people were taking away from the children’s resources and education.
Ms Bottriel pleaded for nearby residents to keep a lookout and report any disturbance, particularly late at night.
The theft is the latest in a series of burglaries from Cranbourne primary schools, with Cranbourne Park Primary School and Cranbourne Primary School also losing computers.
Police urged people to report any suspicious activity.
Anyone with information can contact Senior Constable David Measham at Cranbourne CIU on 5995 4577 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
