Reports that the old Park Hall school toilets have been targeted by vandals have been confirmed by an insider. The school was due to use the old building to sit up and coming exams, this has to be re-considered. The damage was mainly to a toilet block and is described as being extensive. The new Park Hall school is to be occupied in the next few weeks, it has not been effected by the vandalism.
