Hello my name is Leilani and today I am here to report about a terrible news event that has started in New Zealand - an earthquake that has hit mostly down the South Island.
Today I have found a lot of information that people might have heard about the earthquake and that it has hit Wellington and Christchurch mostly. The earthquake was 7.5 and hit near Kaikoura. It killed two people. What a lot of damage it has done. Some sides of the buildings are damaged and have collapsed as well in Wellington. About 100 people are now evacuating from their home. In Wellington the earthquake has now gone higher up to 7.8 and more people are evacuating. Wellington cinema car park building is likely to collapse and in a larger aftershock. Waves have been crashing in Wellington and caused road closure now people are warned to stay away from beaches as well.
Some Tips for when earthquake:
# If you are in a house go underneath a table and Drop, Cover and Hold if the earthquake is still happening.
# If you are outside with nowhere to go then you Drop, Cover and Hold and wait till the shaking stops.
# Make sure that you stay away from the beaches if tsunamis are coming.
# And last but not least listen to the news or maybe the radio it can tell you what might be happening around New Zealand and how you can keep safe in a earthquake.
Thank you for listening.
This is great advice, Leilani. I hope that many people have read your message. I hope they do what you suggest too.
