Welcome back to term four

13 October 2009

Term four starts off with National Disaster Awareness Week.

We will be having an earthquake drill sometime this week to keep us focused on disasters and how we can be prepared.

The tragedy of Samoa is already in our thoughts as we think about disasters.

If you want to find out more about tsunamis go to Kids National Geographic. This is a very cool site with loads of information on all subjects. The library display also has books on tsunamis and other disasters.

There are places you can visit online to help you prepare for a disaster. 

Get ready get thru is a great one and has heaps of ideas from Civil Defence.

Do you have a survival kit? Perhaps you can encourage your family to create one.
