Over the past few weeks on the East Coast, we have been experiencing pretty strange weather. Days have gone from extreme heat and sunshine to heavy rains within a few minutes. 

The area of Mooi River was hit by a very heavy hailstorm on Thursday. The storm wreaked havoc in the area, causing serious damage.

Treverton College, situated in the area, was one of the places to be badly affected by the heavy rains. A video uploaded to the Storm Report Live Facebook page showed water gushing from the school, resulting in the closure of the facility until the damage is cleared up. The video already has over 4,600 views.

Seeing the chaos that the storm caused, Darren Maule caught up with the Headmaster of the school, Dave Cato, to find out the extent of the damage and find out about clean-up operations.
