Police are investigating a threatening message scrawled on a high school’s bathroom wall on the Sunshine Coast.

On a post to the ‘Beerwatch” Facebook page, a concerned parent shared a picture of the message which read “Im (sic) gonna stab everyone on 6/2/25”.

Other parents from the school flocked to the post, suggesting the school knew about the graffiti.

“My son told me as well, and he told me the school knew about it and who it was,” one mother wrote.

“Hopefully this means they have put the appropriate actions in place already.”

“Well, I’m keeping my daughter home today just in case,” another mum wrote.

“I’ve not heard from the school about this at all, and in today’s day and age you can’t be too careful.

“Unless I hear from the school about whether they’ve found who wrote it and have done something about it, my daughter won’t be going to school tomorrow either.”

“The school is doing all it can do,” a third person wrote.

“It could actually be helpful for them if you are concerned to keep your kids home.”

Other parents said police were at the school during drop off.

“Just dropped my daughter, and the police rocked up just as I was leaving,” one mum said.

“I’m sure just to ease everyone’s mind.”

It is understood the threatening message was written on the wall of the girls’ bathroom.

A QPD spokeswoman confirmed police were on scene, but described the complaint as “vandalism”.

The Department of Education has been contacted for comment.
