“Thank you to everyone who has helped and offered help with the clean up at school today.
"We have managed to jet wash the playground where the water based paint was thrown and this looks much better. The window in the Old School has been boarded up inside and out.
"The broken glass in the Music room has been cleared and we have tried our best to clean the carpet where the open paint tin landed.

"It has also got into the drains so this may be problematic.”
Warwickshire Police have been informed of the incident and are investigating.
Mrs Jones said: “The police have pictures and they will start a campaign on their social media to see if we can get any information on who did it.

“I am very grateful to the wonderful community around us in Cubbington and beyond.
"Thankfully the children did not have to see the hideous vandalism first hand and hopefully we now have time to make further improvements before they come back after their holiday.”
