Canterbury quake

Hello Room 17. Today I’m going to talk to you about the massive earthquake that hit Canterbury at 4.35am on Saturday, 4th September.

While most people were still asleep, a massive 7.1 magnitude earthquake which was centered near Darfield, significantly affected Christchurch and surrounding areas. Many of the old and heritage buildings were destroyed or suffered serious damage. The numbers are still being calculated, but it is thought that over 100,000 buildings will need repairing and many will need to be rebuilt.

There were a few welfare centers set up for people whose homes were not safe to live in anymore. The sewage and water were affected for many days in several parts of the city. In some of these areas, it still remains a problem. A lot of jobs have been lost, but also many will be created as the province prepares to fix what was destroyed or damaged.

Over 300 after shocks have hit since the big earthquake. I hope that these will soon stop.

Thank you for listening to my speech.
