Tasman's Memoir

On the 17th of april 2014  cyclone Ita hit the west coast of the South Island it was cold wet and windy morning and so I got ready for school and ran in the rain I got to school we were working and at the start of the day there was a little bit of wind and throughout the day it got worse.At 1:30 we got a warning to go home and so my dad came and picked me up it was a bit hard to get to the car because it was sooo windy. When I got home I looked round the whole house to make sure my pets were in side and one of my cats was outside we

A girl in my class Alyssa was at her house and there roof was making a real loud noise and started to rip off. So Alyssa and her family went down the road to there friends house and they stayed the night.The next day someone went down to the beach and found parts Alyssa roof down there.

Mum and dad and were they only people with a gas stove round our area.So I went to our neighbours and close friend asking them if they wanted a hot drink. I walked around delivering their drinks and I was telling mum and dad what drinks to make.I admit it was kinda fun.

Mum,dad,Teagen  I slept in the lounge because our bedrooms are at the front of the house so Teagan slept on the couch me mum and dad shared two single foam mattresses.

My dad was amazing because a couple of days before he went and brown some solar powered light and he charged them up which literally saved our lives from the darkness. A couple of day later there was a big clean up in the process.
