The Fire

In class we have been learning to write recount about the Post Hills fire. Here is mine.

The furious fire

It was a normal day but something

was not right. On the port hills a furious fire which started from an electrical fault made one big fire. Trees were demolished, and houses were made into smithereens. People were sad and homeless I was scared because of the fire and then finally the fire stopped burning and I felt relieved. By Lachlan.
