The federal government has warned that Australian children are at risk of being recruited into terrorist groups at the school playground. 

Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil on Thursday said ASIO recently informed her about an incident where a group of teenagers attempted to radicalise children, including those as young as 13, in the school playground.
