I like your story. I’m pleased you could all huddle together with your teachers. What special people you have around you Xanthe. Wow, your Dad was great to carry you across all the water. It is sad to hear about all the damage.
I hope your classroom is the special place for learning again:) Good luck to you and your family. We saw the special visit from Prince William so I hope it encouraged you all to continue to be strong together.

It’s so lovely to have your smiling face back at school :) I’m glad you got to spend time at your cousins’ house around your family.

It sounds as though it was ‘Hug Day” when the earthquake happened.

Mr Jack and Mrs Woolford sound like great people to look after you so well and keep you safe.

Isn’t it great when your Dad can pick you up out of the water to carry you to the car?

Poor old Tara would have been very afraid and wasn’t able to understand what happened,Tara will need lots of care I expect.

It sounds as though you have seen lots of relatives in this time. It’s great you were able to offer your house to your Uncle and Aunty.

In this time of rebuilding times will be tough but I want you to remember there are loads of people who are thinking of you and trying to do things that may help.

Take care from Ella in Auckland.
