    A fire's broken out at Auckland's Northcote College, as firefighters strike


    Fire and Emergency were alerted to the fire at around 12.17pm,

    A spokesperson says a crew from Silverdale is currently in attendance, with multiple additional crews on their way to the scene.

    A video taken from the school's field shows large flames shooting from the burning block and plumes of black smoke billowing into the air.
