Christchurch get hit once again

On Tuesday the 22nd of February at 12:51am a massive earthquake struck Christchurch at a 6.3 magnitude. On
that day I was playing cricket with the little kids then when me and Flynn were batting I hit the ball then we ran the first moment i thought it was going to be a small after shock but just then the hole field started to shake. Then Mr Barr and Mrs V said hit the deck everyone and then we all lined up i our class lines and our teacher took the roll to check if everyone was here and no one was missing. So after Mr Barr took the roll he decided to take us back into the class and carry on with our daily routine but the acting principle Mrs Black said it wasn't safe to be in the class rooms. So we went outside again and waited for further notice and about 20 minutes later my dad came from Amblside ave in Burnside. My dad was not so lucky he was in a roof when it happened and he had to hold onto a beam he was holding on for his dear life. When i got home dad told me to go fill up the 20 litre container then after that i made myself a sandwich. My dad was a lucky person because he had the cook island police commissioner with him so he could go though the city with him. When he went though he said it as so devastating to see what Christchurch has turned out to. But there's one thing i'm glad about is we are all safe and no one is hurt in this tragic event.
