  • I don't know how, but I still remember this. The fire stretched quite far. It came all the way down by my current school. I wasn't in this school yet, but it had to be closed for a couple days, and this school is only a 15 minute drive away from my house, so I was pretty close to it. I hope nothing like this happens again.

  • I was At school and I was not really paying attention to the teacher so I looked out the window and saw this HUGE cloud of smoke and I yelled and everyone came to look then we all went outside to watch  (Elizabeth Sutherland school)
