A PRIMARY school janitor was making his rounds when he found that he could not open the door of a classroom.

When he forced the door open, he was greeted by a shocking sight.

In front of him, sprawled on the teacher's desk, were two teenagers - stark naked.


Mr Siew Teng Cheok, 72, ended up being punched in the eye when he tried to stop the boy from escaping.

The janitor at Tao Nan School in Marine Crescent told The New Paper yesterday that he chanced upon the teenage couple during a routine check of the classrooms at about 5.30pmon Monday.

Just saw this news too.
I wonder how did this teenage couple enter the school compound.
Isn't the main entrance has a security guard and only Tao Nan students and staff can enter?
This is a trepassing offence and the worst is that teenage couple was caught naked.

The security guard is stationed at the front gate. No use one lah. They are told not to leave their post to patrol the school. People can climb or get in via other ways. I hope that the school should not suddently step up their daily security measures just because of this incident. It will give extra-inconveniences to us parents who are going to school daily.

This is a stand-alone incident, naughty youths (should be sentenced to canning if caught) and happen in the school holidays. Any tightening of normal operating procedures cannot prevent it.

Don’t u think our children is safe from this incident? What if any man catch your girl and …how? Don’t forget there’s enrichment course during this incident and what if your child went to toilet, anything can happen in the school toilet too.

Looks like no movement plan for TNS yet. It is staying put at Marine Crescent for 2011.

TK:

I am sure you are not speaking for the school's management.

However, would intruders just choose to visit on Saturday ?
Like I said, changing normal operating procedures just to react to this incident can only give inconvenience to parents, students and other bona fide visitors.

They have security officers. The security officers should be made to patrol the campus, not just sit there and watch car coming in and out.

Just wondering if this is true. I heard from a neighbour that there was an intruder in the school yesterday morning, 13 Jul. A male dark skin foreign worker was found in one of the girls toilet in the morning. The matter had been reported to the school management. One of the boy student who saw the man even tried to give chase but lost him.


I would suggest those parents with children in the school warn their kids to be wary of outsiders. Especially the girls, they should go toilet only in pairs. The school should also educate the student on what to do in such situation, what the boy student did was dangerous if he had managed to corner the male worker, especially if he turned violent.

I went to the school and asked the security guard uncle. He did not seems to know about 'a foreign worker' but told me that 'it could be a China exchange student' (who may have wondered into a girl's toilet by mistake) ?

Schools gate are manned once the students start arriving and locked during lesson hours.


Agreed that we should teach our kids to be wary of strangers. But I do think that the school’s compund is still much safer than most other public areas; especially during school hours.
