‘Horrific acts of animal cruelty’: Dozens of chickens killed at NSW high school

“This includes working with the sheep, goats, chickens and alpacas, as well as seed development, plant propagation and management, aquaponics, hydroponics and paddock management,” it says on its website.
Students at the school have described the farm “as a dream come true”. The chicken pen produces three dozen eggs a day.
“It’s really fun because we make some bonds with the alpacas or the chickens,” one student said in a video posted by the education department to the school’s website.
“They just come running up to you at the end of the day, and you’re their best friend.”
NSW Police declined to comment on how the chickens were killed.
“We are urging anyone who may have any information about this matter – or who were in the area at the time with any available dashcam/mobile phone footage – to contact Wollongong Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000,” Guthrie said.
