A former employee of a well-known Wellington school has denied accusations of taking $331,000.
The 39-year-old man appeared in the Wellington District Court this morning where he pleaded not guilty to 35 charges, including using forged documents, accessing a computer system for dishonesty, and obtaining by deception.
The charges, which date back to 2019, include using a forged Southern Cross Healthcare invoice to defraud the school.
The man has interim name suppression until early December, when a full argument will be heard on whether or not he can be named.
He has elected for a judge-alone trial on the charges.
