Tuck Shop for Vermin
The Tuck Shop for local vermin is always
well stocked at our School.
The students at our school regularly win awards for their involvement in environmental activities, but they seem unable to persuade staff to follow their example. While the students are planting trees to protect the delicate coastal heath between the school and the Indian Ocean, staff are providing a smorgasbord for local vermin by regularly overloading the waste bin.
An Environmental Health Officer with the City of Bunbury explained that Council was powerless to act against the School in the matter because the relevant sections of the Health Act 1911 do not bind the Crown. "We can only appeal to their sense of civic duty in the interests of public health," she said.
And despite a tornado having hit Bunbury just a few weeks ago, there is no sign that staff at our school have any idea about securing materials that might become missiles in a high wind. This is despite the fact that a house immediately adacent to the school was almost completely destroyed by the recent twister, and the school itself lost tiles in the same event.
After passing the school, the recent tornado inflicted irreparable damage to the Catholic Church by lifting it from its foundations. A similar wind would have no difficulty picking up the palettes and lumber left lying about the school yard, and projecting them as potentially lethal missiles into adjacent dwellings.
