Terry Christchurch Interview

WALT: Find proof of the authors message.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Terry is a young boy who lives in New Zealand and loves playing video games especially the game called Krang Castle. Terry has a Mum and a pet mouse called mickey and had to live with his Aunt and Cousins for a few months until their house was built, his happen after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake.

What are your thoughts on the Christchurch earthquake?

I thought it was a tragedy and I was very upset because some of my family lived there and they had to live with us for a few months until their home was built and they left recently and gave me the game which is called Krang Castle. I was also very upset because the people who survived, had their homes destroyed but I did ask my mum if I or she could do anything for them, so we went down to Christchurch and help some people there who were in trouble.

If an earthquake hit your city, what would it mean for you?

It would mean a lot because my mother or my mouse Mickey might get hurt or it could be worse than that and I would be alone. Another thing is my computer will be gone and I cannot play on my video games. This would only happen if the level of the earthquake was high then this would happen. I might even have to go and live with someone else for a few months like my aunt and cousins

How would your react in an earthquake?

I would be scared and do what they taught me at school for the last seven years which is…  Drop, Roll, Cover. I think I would go underneath a strong table or chair and tell my mother and bring my little mouse Mickey with me.

Liam is a eleven year old boy who lives in New Zealand and likes to play on the computer and he also knows some codes on the computer that do incredible things. Liam also is good at rocket impersonations and thinks he might work in the NASA when he is older.

1. What are your thoughts on the Nepal earthquake?

I think that it is a great idea that international aid could help and I think that all the people around the world should be helping them unless they are the people  are needed help from other people.

2. If an earthquake hit your city, what would it mean for you?

If it was a small earthquake and nobody died or their homes were destroyed then it would mean no that much, but if our homes were destroyed and some people losted their family then it would mean a lot to me.

3. Are you going to help the people in Nepal in any way?

Well I could do a fundraiser like a bake sale and a garage sale or use my talent and find the remote areas if I get in touch with the rescue team.
