Gigantic Earthquake In Nepal

I am going to tell you about the earthquake that had happened in Nepal. Hope you enjoy my report.

In Nepal there was a gigantic earthquake also known as the Gorkha Earthquake. Did you know that the earthquake killed more than 8,00 people and injured more than 16,000 people in Nepal? Well I didn’t either. If you look on this LINK YOU WILL FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THE EARTHQUAKE.  This is a link on wikipedia about what happened in Nepal. This is some pretty interesting information. I wonder how the earthquake happened. Here is a LINK ABOUT HOW EARTHQUAKES HAPPEN.  The earthquake in Nepal happened at 11:56 on the 25 April 2015.

In Nepal a lot of people are suffering and heaps of people were made homeless. The earthquake in Nepal was also known as the Gorkha Earthquake.  It was the worst natural disaster to strike Nepal since the 1934 Nepal–Bihar earthquake. The earthquake triggered an avalanche on Mount Everest, killing at least 19, making it the deadliest day on the mountain in history. There was also a baby which got pulled out nearly dead. 10 classes got destroyed in the worst-affected districts.Almost 24,000 classrooms were damaged or destroyed in the disaster that hit the country 12 days ago. Did you also know that Today at about 5:00 there was another earthquake which was a 7.3 Magnitude.




Heaps of people tried to contact one of their family but some did and some didn't. There were nearly 100 new Zealanders that are registered as being in Nepal. 1.7 million children living in areas hardest hit by the earthquake. Here are some links about The Nepal Earthquake: http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/nz-s-Nepalese-community-desperate-information-6300948

Some people are lucky because some people made it out alive, but most people are dead because of the earthquake. A week after the earthquake happened, a 101 year old man had got saved, but almost dead. Here is a link to a video of a baby that had got saved and pulled out of a falling building: http://edition.CNN.com/2015/04/30/Asia/Nepal-earthquake-baby/index.HTML?hpt=ob_galleryfooterexpansion&iref=obnetwork
Please take a look at this link and hear about this sad story about a baby. The baby hadn't got crushed, but He had a lot of marks and cuts all over his body. Some entire towns in Nepal were flattened. Countries all over the world are donating money for Nepal. Millions of dollars to fix their homes and classrooms. To Build everything they need again. It would be so sad for the people in Nepal that have died or lost some of their family members. So people from UNICEF are helping children forget about what might have happened to their family by playing games with them, painting with them. Doing everything they can to help the children.

feel free to comment on my blog and take a look at the links that I have put on here.  I hope you enjoyed my writing about The Earthquake in Nepal.
