Welcome to our blog site where students at the Royal Children's Hospital can follow our project. Our aim is to gain an understanding of the Christchurch earthquake and how it has affected the young people of Christchurch. Our hope is to fundraise money through our projects that will benefit those affected.

Tectonic Plates and Earthquakes
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. What do you think happens?
The tectonic plates rub push and slide together and they collide together which causes the ground to shake by that then this causes tsunami's and earthquakes to happen.
Tectonic plates make up the earth . The rubbing of the plates makes earthquakes. Some buildings fall down from earthquakes but some don't because they have a stronger structure.
