Our earthquake recounts, unedited...

Friday 16 august 2013...

On friday I was in class doing my volcano art and suddenly i started feeling woozy. I thought I was about to pass out. People in the class starting saying earthquake so I was pretty happy it wasn't just me.

The room started to shake it was like I was in a giant shaking monster truck,My heart starting pumping and i started to panic I wondered what i would do next.

Finally Mrs Griffin said get under the desks so i did exactly that.  The earthquake was at least 3 minutes,When it was over Mrs Griffin said "Look at the fan it's shaking like mad."

I was directly under the fan.I looked up and almost screamed like a little girl,But i decided i 

would just stay cool.

It was a 6.6 earthquake set in Wellington,but I bet a lot of places felt it.

Earthquake by Daniel

On Friday the 16th of August I was sitting down on the beanbag looking up information about volcanoes. When I felt a rumble I thought WHAT! when I realised that there was in earthquake it when on for quite a while. The earthquake was very shaky as wobbly jelly. Some people thought that it was going to be there last breath but I knew it wasn't a big one. So I kept calm and didn't worry. I then heard get under your desk. So I got under my desk and heard Aaron yell ANI! GET UNDER YOUR DESK! Then a few minutes later it stopped. I got out from under my desk and got up. I  remember talking about it when I got home and how cool it was.

On Friday the 16th of August at about 2:30pm there was a massive earthquake.  We were just doing our art until I felt the class shaking I yelled earthquake and we rushed under our desk and gripped on to our legs of our desk.  The earthquake

Was 6.6 and it came all the way from Wellington.  When we came out of our desks the fan was swaying a lot I felt amazed.

On Friday there was a huge earthquake.  It was like being in a jinormus jelly!  We were just doing our work then BAM we felt the earthquake.  We jumped under our desks screaming and giggling.

When it was over and the screaming had stopped we all looked up and the fan was swirling around like a cooking beater.

After the earthquake Mrs Griffin checked her phone that can tell you how big the earthquake is. The earthquake that Wellington had was  a humongous 6.6 earthquake WOW! But we only had a little earthquake in Dannvirke.
