Two dogs have attacked and killed 14 sheep kept by Rochedale State High School for their award-winning agricultural program, leaving school students and staff distressed.
A Department of Education spokeswoman said the school is now seeking replacement stock to allow the program to continue.
Following the deaths of the stock on Sunday which included Suffolk and Southdown breeds, the spokeswoman said the school community is being provided with counselling support for as long as necessary after the school community was informed on Monday.
