Torfaen Council is appealing for witnesses after vandals caused around £2000 worth of damage at Coed Eva Primary School. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

A number of windows were smashed and there was damage to the frames in which looks like an attempt to break into the building in the attack which is believed to have occurred sometime between 4.30pm on Wednesday 3rd August and 8.20am on Thursday 4th August 2016. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
