Children fell from bouncy castle, there are casualties VIDEO

The accident - caused by a wind gust - happened on Thursday at a primary school fun day in Devonport, Tasmania.

Police said the castle was about 10 meters high, and the tragedy occurred on a day of fun.

The BBC reports that two boys and two girls were killed.

Local police commander Debbie Williams described the site of the tragedy as "disturbing".

"A wind gust had reportedly caused the jumping castle and inflatable balls to lift into the air," Tasmanian Police Commissioner Darren Hine said.

"Our hearts are breaking for the families and the loved ones, schoolmates, teachers of these young people who were taken too soon."

According to the latest information, all children were in grades five or six - typically for children aged 10-12.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison described the tragedy as "unthinkably heartbreaking".

"Young children on a fun day out… and it turns to such horrific tragedy. At this time of the year, it just breaks your heart," Morrison said.
