A police investigation has been launched after a hidden camera was found in the girls’ locker room at a Queensland primary school.
Teachers were alerted after a student discovered the webcam, which was hidden in the Brisbane Primary School pool changing room.
Nearly two weeks ago, an email was sent to parents confirming that a camera had been found on school grounds, saying that “the safety and well-being of your children remains the school’s top priority.”
Parents were also asked to “consider refraining from commenting on the issue on social media or other forums.”
One outraged father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, described it as “the sickest thing you can do”.
