A post circulating on social media allegedly shows a Kepnock State High School teacher's aide writing racist comments on the side panel of a car.

The remarks include offensive language directed at Aboriginal people, with phrases such as "F*ck N*ggers" and "Black C*nts - I hate!"

The individual, identified as Ty Appleton, is allegedly seen using a paint pen to write the comments.

The video was originally posted on Snapchat by Korey Wilson before screenshots began circulating on Facebook, drawing widespread community outrage.

One community member expressed concern, stating, "Oh my, he wouldn't be going anywhere near my kid if he really is a teacher aide".

Another questioned the individual's employment.

"Ask his workplace why he's working around Indigenous kids when he's writing this trash," they said.

"Time these sort of people not be in charge of our future generations."

The person who captured the screenshots, first shared them on Facebook.

"Disgusting. Stop being so ignorant, either educate yourselves or say nothing at all, it's not hard," they said.

This occurrence follows a series of racist incidents in 2025 alone, speaking to the concern of systemic racism present throughout the country.

A spokeperson for the Department of Education told National Indigenous Times they are aware of the situation.

"The Department of Education is aware of serious allegations against a departmental employee," they said.

"All allegations of this nature are taken extremely seriously."

"The Department is investigating as a priority, and will take appropriate action."

"Community members with concerns are encouraged to raise them with the school principal."

"For privacy reasons, the Department cannot comment further on confidential employee matters."
