The sheep made their escape after a vandal broke into the Griffith High site of Murrumbidgee Regional High School, smashed a window, and cut a hole in a fence in the sheep enclosure.
All of the sheep were eventually rounded up and herded back into the school, which uses the sheep for its agricultural classes.
The people responsible are wanted over malicious damage to property.
