Rotorua Principals are becoming increasingly concerned about fights occurring at a CBD bus stop.

Police presence has been increased in the area at the request of Mayor Tania Tapsell, but despite this, children still say they feel unsafe.

Rotorua Intermediate School Principal Garry de Thierry told Heather du Plessis-Allan that he saw seven security people and a policeman at the bus stop earlier this afternoon.

He said he’s confused, angry, and disappointed that they have gotten to this stage.
