A truck has ploughed through a primary school in Sydney’s south after failing to stop at an intersection and crashing into several cars.

The driver is said to have failed to stop at an intersection at Newbridge Road and Nuwarra Road around 1pm on Saturday.

“He left the road, hit the fence of the local church and then ended up under a classroom at the school,” said Sergeant Shaun Colls. 7News.

“Luckily it was the weekend (so there were no kids at school),” he said.

According to reports, about a dozen cars were hit when the truck entered the intersection. Four people, including the truck driver, were treated at the scene by paramedics.

A woman in her 20s, a man in his 30s and a woman in her 70s were all taken to Liverpool Hospital.
