‘The Earthquake’- Natalia, 5, Marshland School
The earthquake was scary. We got under the table like a turtle and held onto its legs. We have cracks in our house but someone will try and fix them.
Whenmyhomeshook.co.nz is a website dedicated to helping Canterbury School children overcome the 2011 earthquake by providing a platform where they can openly share their personal earthquake stories and experiences.These stories were turned into a book which was distributed free to all Christchurch libraries and schools. Hosting of the website is covered by oVRcome, a virtual reality app to help people overcome phobias and anxieties.
Wow this is so cool. It was very scary wasn’t it. I hope our house can be fixed too.
