No students were seriously injured, but some were taken to hospital with minor injuries, police said.

Kiwirail, which is responsible for the country’s rail operations, said the crossing was protected by flashing lights and bells.

The train driver was physically unharmed but “naturally shaken” by the accident, chief executive Greg Miller said.
