‘EARTHQUAKE’- Tyler, 11, Weedons School
Saturday 3rd September 4:30 AM
At this time I was in bed dreaming!
Saturday 3rd September 4:35 AM
At this time I was woken by a 7.1 earth quake in the Rolleston region.
Saturday 3rd September 5:00 AM
As the 7.1 died, we all sat in the lounge waiting for the next big one.
Saturday 3rd September 6:30 AM
We make phone calls as the after shocks come and go. We realize how important life is.
Saturday 3rd September 8:00 AM
As the after shocks are coming at speed, we all went to see the rest of the family in town .
Saturday 3rd September 5:30PM
As we arrive home, the power was restored. We moved the mattress into the lounge for the night to come.
Monday 6th September 2:00pm
As time went on there was a wedding to attend. I was a groomsman. As my sisters wedding went on, there was an after shock which was small. As Mike said, “I do” the crowd clapped. Then it was my turn to sign the forms.
I like the agjtives you have used. It is an fantastic righting Tyler.

What an amazing day it must have been for you, earthquakes and weddings all in one day. I agree that our lives are important- not just things we own. Great job Tyler
