Tools stolen from Southland carpentry students, projects in jeopardy

From Checkpoint, 4:25 pm on 11 December 2024

The tools were taken from a workshop at the Invercargill's Southern Institute of Technology. Students discovered the sheds had been broken into and their gear cleaned out when they arrived on campus on Monday. They are thousands of dollars out of pocket, but they are also on deadline to deliver their carpentry project without their tools. Leigh Buchanan spoke to Lisa Owen.
