SHOTS were fired at teachers' cars, and parents and children were abused at a primary school Christmas carol service in Sydney, the Catholic Church has said.
The Catholic Archbishop of Sydney, George Pell, said people at a service on Monday night at St Joseph the Worker Primary School in Auburn were abused by men of Middle Eastern appearance.
He said shots were also heard and staff yesterday morning found bullet holes in their cars.
No one was hurt.
Cardinal Pell says he is deeply concerned by the targeting of Christmas celebrations for students as young as five and the attack appears to have been motivated by religious intolerance.
Police said yesterday they were investigating the incident, which came on the second day of race-based violence that started with riots at Cronulla on Sunday.
Two damaged cars and cartridges found at the scene will be forensically examined.
Meanwhile, a surf carnival for Sydney's North Cronulla beach this Saturday has been cancelled amid fears that race riots will continue into the weekend.
Surf Life Saving NSW said a large-scale beach carnival had been postponed indefinitely after two days of tension on several city beaches.
Its chief executive, Phil Vanny, said the decision was unfortunate but necessary.
"Given the current levels of tension around Cronulla, the movement wholeheartedly supports the decision made by the branch," he said.
Mr Vanny said many members were worried about travelling to the Sutherland Shire following the outbreaks of violence.
He said the annual surf carnival, which usually attracts 1000 competitors, may be held at a later date.
Volunteers would work with police and the Government to "ensure that the current situation has as little impact on our members as possible".
More than 20 men were charged and dozens were injured after rioting at Cronulla on Sunday and Monday nights.
No slowdown in the Ramadan offensive. It continues....
MMEA's?????
When will the world realize that islam is the problem?
Sorta like MIB's?
I am positive that the Australian citizenry realize what is required of them at this time!
Wasn't a Church burned last night?
we are in the beginning of a 100 year war
Much of "the world" DOES realize this. And they are called "Republicans".
Islam started the war almost 1400 years ago.
well, a new phase of the war.
Oh, there's more. Check out the headlines to the right on the same page.
Driver bashed by group of men
And apparently a church went up in flames near an Islamic Community Center on the Muslim side of town:

Looks Middle Eastern. Smells Middle Eastern. Let's see if it runs Middle Eastern, too.
I hope the new phase includes eliminating the vermin.
Now, here's the 'good' news: not too long ago, the Australian government decided to ban all registered handguns of any calibre over .38 (unless it's a single shot or single action), in order to make the country a whole lot safer. See what happens: children singing Christmas carols may end up getting shot in the streets and there's nothing that anyone can do about it.
Go figure: all they can come up with is buckets full of PC 'anti-racist' rethoric after rendering the people defenceless.
This can't be! We all know that people of tan/black skin are inheritally peaceful.
Violence is only committed by white Americans.
The First Crusade began in about 1099. Christians against muslims. We are now STILL in a continuation of that conflict. It has really not ever ended. I call this phase of this fight "Crusade 2001", or maybe "Crusade 9/11". I have serious concerns about winning this conflict in 100 years. I am completely aware that we can, 100 %, but I am not sure that we as a nation that includes Traitorous Democrats, will continue on a path to victory, when the dipsh!t dims oppose our brave military at every opportunity.
I think that the Aussies may be in for a "two-fer" here: a beat-down on the "Religion of Peace", and the restoration of their right to keep and bear arms.
I wonder what my Bush-hating, muzzie-apologist Aussie friends think about this latest episode, courtesy of the ROP.
And the MSM is disgraceful - as usual - in their coverage of it, showing only one side (white males getting arrested).
If we have to end up nuking those countries (they will have to force us to) we can send the Dems over there to colonize it.
