Reports from the police are that five of the school's classrooms were vandalised, with desk and chairs damaged. It is believed that the break-in happened sometime between Saturday and Sunday night.
It is also reported that a threatening message for a teacher at the school was written on a chalkboard in one of the classrooms.
The police are trying to ascertain whether the latest incident is linked to an event which took place last week, where a teacher reprimanded two students for bad behaviour.
