A 12-year-old girl will front court today charged with allegedly stabbing another child at a school in Queensland.
Emergency crews were called to an educational facility on Bower Street in Caloundra around 10am on Tuesday following reports of a disturbance.
Upon arrival, they found a 12-year-old boy had suffered a non-life-threatening cut to his abdomen.
He was treated at the scene by paramedics before being taken to the Sunshine Coast University Hospital.
