Paramedics said a 10-year-old boy, 12-year-old girl and a mid-teenage boy suffered soft tissue injuries. Those three were taken to the Alberta Children’s Hospital in stable condition.
Four other students were taken to Vulcan hospital for assessment with “minor to no injuries,” EMS said in a statement.
A seventh student was taken away from the rollover by a “private vehicle.”
The only other student aboard the bus was uninjured, as was the driver—a man in his 50s.
The rollover happened just east of Highway 24 at about 1 p.m.
The cause of the incident is under RCMP investigation.
