Sydney: Four small children were killed and several other people were seriously injured when the gust of wind blew rocking castles into the air at the end of Thursday.
Police said students in elementary school in North Tasmania celebrated the last week of the class before Christmas breaks when they were thrown from a height of about 10 meters (33 feet).
“I can now confirm that four children have died and four in critical conditions and one in serious conditions,” said Police Commissioner Tasmanian Darren Hine.
The victims were two boys and two girls from sixth grade around 11 years old.
Some helicopters and rescue ambulances have rushed to the scene after the incident, which occurred around 10 am local time on a sunny day, early summer.
The picture shows attending a cried police officer, and the blue tarpaulin sheet protects what officers described as “very dealing and troublesome scenes”.
The police investigation is underway.
Witnesses, friends, family, teachers and respondents were first offered counseling.
– ‘Terrible Tragedy’ – Scott Morrison’s Prime Minister said the incident was “just destroying” and “heartbreaking who was unhurried”.
“Children are small on a pleasant day, along with their families and turn to horrible tragedies like this, at this time, it only destroys your heart,” he said.
“I just want to say, to parents and family and friends, everything is there, for young children there and watch this event, I just pray you will have a big family around you and good friends and You can come this terrible tragedy.
“The school has invited parents to volunteer for the event, which displays the wet play zone, slides, arts and crafts, rubber balls and rocking palaces.
“Today’s goal is to celebrate a successful year and enjoy some fun activities with classmates,” School, Hillcrest Primary, posted on the Facebook page.
The post was followed by updates: “There had been an accident on the site at our school.
We close the school for the rest of the day.” “We ask that parents come to take their children as a problem of urgency.” Local weather services have estimated “light wind” for the area, which is located on the northern coast of Tasmania which is rough, looking out across the cold bass strait.
