Some thugs have set fire to a bench and destroyed an area of greenery at the back of St. Mary's School, Ossy. This area was the kids outdoor classroom that throughout the year the children of the school use every week. They learn about wildlife and help to keep the area clean. These pathetic thugs have ruined a years good work done by the children (including my daughter) who all loved the area. If anyone knows anything about it or if they have any information about who could have done it please let me know.
 
No, it's all outdoor a little way away from the school. It's all hidden from view by the trees and bushes.
 
i realy dont know where kids learn that it is ok to set fire to hard work that children have done

these peope are just as bad as the morons who shower the childrens play area with broken glass at the nursery next to glynn webb

plenty of times i have walked past to see the childrens play area covered in broken bottles and beer cans the staff there must have their work cut out making it safe for children to play on again
 
Yes, they do. Up until recently my youngest was at that nursery so I know what you mean.

It makes you wonder what sort of mindless moron thinks it's funny to throw their bottle over a wall - no doubt when they're on their way home from the pub.
 
nothing is sacred any more ,,the yobs have probably forgotten all about it ,and moved on to the next target ,,
 
What is it? Lack of parental responsibility, failure of the education system or the courts? Personally I think it’s all three. It’s time we went back to the drawing board with social responsibility been the first issue to be debug of the last 30 years or so of political correctness. The softly, softly approach has led to indifference and a lack of respect. Maybe it time to treat these people to the realities of their actions and bring back the birch for extreme case’s and make Community Service into Community Labour with an isolation cell to look forward to at the end of the day.

exactly.....we are too soft
 
even if britain brought out such laws europe would over rule them

the european court of appeals seems nothing but a hinderence at times

british justice should be final

I agree with you chav. Maybe we should spend more time considering the Human Rights of those children and the parents that have to deal with there disappointment. To do nothing is to aid and abet these b*****ds.

Lack of punishment is what's wrong. They feel they are invincible and how right they are. You can't reason with people like that, they'd just laugh in your face. They know their "rights" but like chav says the European Court of Appeal (whatever its name is) gets in the way and overrides British Justice. We need to be able to stand on our own and make decisions about how to punish these vandals and hooligans without outside interference.
 
Gail please be careful if you get any info as you have asked for it maybe better for folks to contact either the police directly or to ring crimestoppers I know it can be a pain getting through but at least they can report and nothing comes back at you and your family. maybe an edit on your opening thread to include crimestoppers phone number might help?

Actually, that's a very good point. Though I'm sure that if anyone did have any information they'd have notified the police already.
 
Sorry no info,but I believe this is the latest craze,Iv'e heared several tales of arson attacks around and about.Let's hope the culprits are caught before a tragedy occurs.
There was a skip set on fire the other day off Paradise St.the black smoke and flames scorched the outside of the flats there.Luckily the Fire Brigade arrived promptly and extinguished the blaze.
If a window had been open the toxic fumes would have killed anyone inside.
It is a very sorry state of affairs!
 
a lot of whats been said is spot on its 100% lack of respect,that went out the window with the do-good brigade, no respect for authority,people,property,anything cos theres no real deterant,we wern't angels but if you got caught you got thumped off your dad,the local bobby,teacher,etc,and it sure as hell made you think twice!
 
These kids consider it fun, because nothing is ,in their minds ,is provided for them to amuse themselves then they consider that it is acceptable for them to steal, assault, burn, damage or deface anything they see , in the name of amusement. In my mind it is a sign of a very low mentality. I'm sure a few pence from allthe members of Accy Web would buy them a new bench. I would be quite willing to donate...........
 
Fireman, that an excellent gesture and I would be more than happy to join you. If Gayle wants to set something up or let us know of a collection point... I would also be happy to get my hands dirty one weekend if a few people want to get together and put things right?
 
That's very kind of you both. I'll speak to the headmaster on Monday and see what he's planning to do about the repair work.
 
Gayle, is the "outdoor classroom" not at the rear of the school, an area bounded by houses all round, apart from the small garden centre to the left, if so how have the vandals got in there without being spotted. Or is it another case of "no I did'nt see anything" from the residents adjacent to the school.
I would contribute though to help restore the feature.
