Cristchurch Earthqauke

Christchurch had a big Earthquake about 1pm in the afternoon. Lots of people died there and it was so bad it was a 6.30! 36 people died from collapsing buildings. it is just like the Pike River mine tragedy.

The buildings in Christchurch are very damaged. I feel so sorry that the people that died and the people who got hurt and trapped under parts of buildings. There was a man that got hurt on his leg and they had to rush him to the hospital and and fix him quickly so he can walk again. When the earthquake happened every thing was crushed and bad. The houses were damaged and people were very hurt.

If an earthquake happened in Auckland I would be so scared because I have little baby brother and he is only 1 years old. The whole school should do a dance fund-raiser.
Our Mums and Dads can give us money to give to the teacher that can then be donated to the people of Christchurch. It can help and make their houses better again. That's what we did last year and I think it is a good idea that we can do again.
