Two mothers have gone toe-to-toe in a vicious brawl outside a school after a row over a parking space.
The feud started during school pick-up outside a Sydney school on Monday when the two mothers exchanged words in a heated argument.
As dozens of young children watched on, the mums then exchanged blows as school staff, other parents, and a nun tried to break up the pair outside Maronite College of the Holy Family.
Police were eventually called to stop the brawl.
The school's principal, Sister Margaret Ghosn, released a statement on the school's Facebook page expressing her disappointment and apologising for any distress the incident may have caused.
"The behaviour of a number of parents was extremely inappropriate and they will be addressed accordingly," Ghosn wrote.
"I apologise for any young children who had to witness such rude and violent behaviour from adults.
"I thank those who tried to defuse the situation which escalated out of hand and to the point where police had to intervene.
"I will emphasise that this behaviour is not tolerated at MCHF.
"The college has always and will continue to teach its students that respect is always of utmost importance. It is a real shame that a handful of parents fail to put this ideal into practice."
No arrests were made and officers and continuing to investigate the incident, 9 News reported.
