‘Earthquake Disaster’- Will, 8, Weedons School

On Saturday at 4.35am a humongous earthquake struck here in Christchurch. We were very lucky because not that much fell over. I was very terrified. After the main earthquake that was 7.1 we went and hopped into Mum and Dad’s bed. At 6.00am our neighbours came for a cup of coffee. Then my eyes exploded! There was hardly anything that had broken. All that had broken was the heater fell off the wall, a mirror smashed, the kitchen was a pigsty and a cabinet fell on James’ bike. I felt very dizzy because I fell out of my bed and walked into the door. Ouch it hurt a lot!
