At 11:07pm last night this intruder has entered the property of our childcare centre and proceeded to help himself to some of the resources which belong to our tamariki.
Shame on you for stealing from anyone let alone a Not for Profit, Community Based Centre which does all it can to give the best early years experiences to our tamariki.
We are now in the process of installing more cameras in the hope that this will deter any more theft.
