A serious accident happened at a primary school in the Australian city of Sydney. It was around 1:00 pm local time on Monday. Several students got hurt in the classroom. 

Reports say at least two students were taken to hospital with serious burns(烧伤). Nine others are believed to have gone through superficial(表面的) burns. One teacher was also sent to the hospital for superficial burns.

Several parents went to the school on Monday afternoon. They had questions about the accident. But the school said they had got things “under control”. “We heard online what happened, and it was a bit worrying. But everything seemed to be under control quite quickly,” Mich Ashton, a parent at the school, said. Another parent said it was a “usual science experiment”, adding that the teacher was “much loved”.

A resident(居民) said that a teacher had walked out of the school earlier to speak to a group of people outside. “The teacher said a science experiment(实验) went wrong, which caused some chemical burns.”
