Moon blamed Auld for poor records, missing property

According to education department whistleblower, Carenne Special School has a history of its property going missing and during a recent audit, principal Neil Moon laid the blame squarely at the feet of Michael Auld.

According to SEA Snitch, the school's annual audit found that a number of new items obtained by the school had not been entered into the school's asset register and had gone missing. "Nobody at Carenne knows where anything is according the auditor. He said that you can walk out the door with something and nobody would ever know it was there to begin with because there are no records," said the whistleblower.

"The department gave Carenne a number of new computers, none of which were entered into the asset register. Asset management should be able to look at the system and see where everything is at any given time but someone at Carenne couldn't be bothered to enter it."

SEA Snitch said that ordinarily, the school's principal and administration manager were responsible for ensuring assets were entered into the asset register, but Neil Moon claimed that he had delegated the task to Michael Auld.

"When the chips were down for Moon, he quite plainly said 'I told Michael to do that, I didn't know it wasn't done'."

According to SEA Snitch, a number of school items had been loaned to staff but there was never any proper record of who it was lent to.

Carenne staff have told Carenne Gate that Michael Auld was made responsible for ensuring electronics such as CD players, TVs, projectors and computers were recorded properly. They claim that most often he didn't do it and items curiously went missing.

"I don't know how many CD players that have been bought or donated for the one room because others have gone missing. Of course, Michael Auld who has been seen at the school of a night loading things into his car denies knowing anything."

One of the Carenne Saviours alleged that Michael Auld and Angie Cranston were responsible for thefts of staff items at the school, including a teacher's purse.
