00:02Police were called here to the Islamic College of Brisbane shortly before midday yesterday
00:07following reports there had been an altercation between two boys.
00:11Now when they arrived they found a 17 year old with serious injuries.
00:15He was taken to hospital where he remains now in a stable condition and recovering.
00:20Police will allege a 16 year old boy, a fellow student, had stabbed him with a small knife
00:26before fleeing the school on foot and being picked up a short time later by police in a vehicle in
00:32a nearby suburb.
00:33Now he's facing two charges over the incident and is due to face the Children's Court today.
00:39And what has the school said?
00:42Yeah so we heard from the school this morning they're asking for respect and privacy at this time.
00:49They say it's largely returning to business as usual today
00:52and we've seen parents dropping their children off for a normal day of school.
00:57However students who need it will be offered more counselling and support if that's required.
01:03And the school's asking that the boy be left alone to recover with the respect of the media.
