Mike Sutton has been principal at Rototuna Primary School for 11 years, and has spent 51 years working in education.
While pupils asked to describe Sutton said he was kind, caring, hardworking and cheerful, the word "bald" also kept coming up.

Poll: Have you seen vandalism around your area?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Vandals’ repeated attacks on Nawton’s destination playground could force the council to close some of the attractions.

Hamilton’s troubled destination playground is closed once again after more vandalism, with repairs expected to be completed sometime next month.
