Two miniature kid goats have gone missing from a primary school during the school holidays.

Staff at St Francis of Assisi Primary School have ruled out an escape and suspect the goats have been stolen.

Police are investigating and anyone with information is asked to come forward.

Teachers at a north-east Victorian primary school are appealing for help to find two missing classmates — miniature kid goats suspected stolen during the holidays.

The goats, lovingly named Blackberry and Thorn by students at St Francis of Assisi Primary School, disappeared from their paddock at the Baranduda school sometime between Sunday and Monday afternoon.

The goats are cared for by students as part of the school's "goat club". ( Supplied: Jordan Hoban )

Cattle and goat club teacher Suzie Patrala said the goats were just four months old, and the students had been bottle-feeding them twice daily.
