The manufacturer of a jumping castle involved in a tragic incident that killed six children at Hillcrest Primary School in Tasmania will provide testimony at a criminal court hearing.
In December 2021, students Chace Harrison, Jalailah Jayne-Maree Jones, Zane Mellor, Addison Stewart, Jye Sheehan, and Peter Dodt were celebrating the end of the school year when a sudden, powerful wind gust—described by witnesses as a “mini-tornado”—lifted the jumping castle and several Zorb balls into the air.
