Dear children of the Philippine’s.

I’m so sorry, hope you are okay after what happened? Are you and your relative’s safe? If I was you, I’ll try to help people like encourage them, like what I’m doing now. Don’t give up, believe in yourself.

Other people in other places are trying to help you. Sadly they can’t land because of the buildings that tumbled. So if you try and clean the place probably they might be able to land and help even more. 

Don’t give up, have faith in yourself, believe that you can help your community and change the place.

Dear children of the Philippines

I am so sorry about the cause of the typhoon and how all the houses in Philippines were destroyed. It’s going to be ok, the people are going to help you, protect you and keep you safe. Your parents would be worried about you too; the rescue people will help you and your worries.

Try not to cry think of something happy like that you’re going to be ok. You can find friends and people who will help you, you can help them too and survive with them.

From someone in New Zealand

I am so sorry about the typhoon. I hope you and your family are ok. I am happy that you found my letter. My name is Shayla Templeman. I live in New Zealand and I go to school at Melville Intermediate. I’m 11 years old and I live in Te Awamutu with my Mum and little brother Jaykib. My Dad lives in Hamilton. I have two older sisters (Ashlea and Claire) but they live in Australia. I hope you find someone to help you.

I hope my letter has given you some hope to carry on......

On that dreadful day of September the 11^th   2001.All that way to America When that plane came crash! And boom! Into the twin buildings watching them slowly crumble. It was a horrific sight knowing that a lot of people are going to die. I didn’t want to believe it. All broadcasted on the news. The firemen going in trying to save as much people as they can even when they didn’t know whether or not there returning themselves. I was one of the unfortunate witnesses standing there in shock like everyone else. I will never forget that haunting day.

Frist, frost swizzles on planet earth, underground and on top of pine trees. Time freezes, my watch shivers and crackles at the spot. Birds flew but then dropped by midair, squirrels chasing each other and dropped from the trees above.

Time after time I was lonely, no birds singing or flapping or squirrels chattering. Just leaves crunching under my frosty boots. The sky never changed just a purple, blue sky, I checked my watch. “Oh what’s the point, my watch has stopped.”

 I wondered around, “WOH!” it was frozen, it was freezing. Head first in the pound, BRAIN FREEZE!!!

‘Hey wait for me!!” I called out to Jack.

 “Hurry up slowpoke” he yelled back. Jack and I were biking past a slippery disgusting pond when jack noticed something. He skidded to a stop and pointed to something in the water. I looked down and saw two gumboots sticking out of the water. Jack reached out and pulled…. A body came flying out of the water. It landed next to the bikes.  I screamed and then I fainted. When I came to Jack was over by the dead body, I slowly walked over to Jack and the body…. I looked down and saw a scarecrow.
