Hey Samantha
Thanks for your story! It really gave me the sense of urgency and fear of the day, you were clearly shaken.
I am glad your Mum was able to pick you up, I am certain she would have been so pleased to see you.
This time must be difficult trying to settle down again and I hope that you have some luck there.
You are the future of Canterbury, making sure that it is rebuilt for people to enjoy in the years to come and to never forget the history of how it was built.
That means you are a Canterbury Champion!
Hold onto that Samantha and take care of yourself. Lots of people including me are thinking of you all the time and trying to assist in some small way.

I feel so sorry for you!!! It must have been so scary. I hope none of your family or friends got hurt. I hope that your feeling a bit better after the earthquake now. At school we have been learning about resilience but our challenges are so small compared to yours.
It must of been scary, =FROM PETER and Sammyboy
