Disaster Day .... BIG EARTHQUAKE!!!!
On the last Thursday of Term 2 we had a disaster day. At 11am we experienced a 6.8 ground shaking earthquake. Part of our classroom was destroyed and we had to build a shelter/hut out side in the playground in small groups, using sticks, tarpaulin, and string. We cooked lunch on the gas BBQ.... Baked Beans, spaghetti, soup, mashed spuds. We practiced lighting a small fire using a flint, and then we had afternoon tea on a hobo cooker... yum pikelets. We talked about what to do if a Tsunami was to hit Mac Bay, and listened to the radio for updates on the closed roads. Overall we thought the day was a good experience for us in case a disaster actually hit.
