Police in the North are investigating another attack on a Catholic primary school in north Belfast overnight.

Attempts were made to set fire to the canteen at the St Mary of the Sea school on Shore Road and paint was thrown over the building.

Two weeks ago, fires were started in various parts of the same school and sectarian graffiti was painted on the building.

Last night's incident was the latest in a spate of attacks on schools in the Greater Belfast area in recent weeks.

Whitehouse Primary School in Newtownabbey suffered major damage in a fire earlier this month.
