"Before we went to the March holidays, they broke into our school and stole laptops and printing machines," said Mhlongo.
"Though we managed to trace the machine, there's fear in this community and if you know the people or you want to act against them you get threatened with death by some people. "We have lost hope and we are trying by all means to make teaching and learning easy but they steal projectors which we use for teaching.""It can't be that the school is being broken into and no-one knows anything. These criminals are from this community; there's no one who can come from far to steal here.
"I'm calling for the police to bring all the cases opened on this school and all the other schools in the province and they should get the priority it deserves because this has to do with the future of our children. The youth of 1976 fought for education and now we must keep their endeavours alive by arresting those vandalising and stealing from our schools."
Police spokesperson Brig Leonard Hlathi said they had arrested one suspect in connection with the first break-in."He's going to appear in court in June 24, and for this break-in, our police are hot on the heels of those responsible."
