Waiho Bridge recount

For this activity we had to write a recount about the tragity that has happened at A bridge called the Waiho bridge near Franz Joseph Glacier in the west coast of the south island.Also for this activity we had to use the same strategy that I used in the previous Blog post.We had to use the 5 ws,some connective words a introduction,a conlusion and facts.

 Waiho Bridge Washed Away Due to strong flooding!!!!!

WALT:Write A Recount.   Orange indicates that I have changed the word/words to sound more interesting.

Did you know that near the Waiho bridge is the Franz Joseph Glacier so when the river was in flood there where big pieces of ice coming down?

       Yesterday in the early evening on the 26th of
When:  March  2019 The Brown Muddy water
Were:underneath of the Waiho bridge south of Franz Joseph Glacier on the west coast was in flood and it was starting to damage the bridge this Why:happened due to the heavy rain and strong winds Luckily they had closed the bridge 1 hour before this happened.

Adjective: A we while after that some parts of the bridge were getting aggressively ripped off.This would have been very scary if you were stuck on one side of the Big messy river river and your family being on the other side and you couldn’t get home.

How: Next the Big long Bridge Bridge was only half a bridge and the other half
was Speedingly drifting down the river.Some people saw this happening were Who: people that lived nearby and some people were just visiting the Franz Joseph Glaciers and the police.
They must have gotten a fright!!!!


After that all of the bridge had suddenly disappeared and there was no bridge and it had became very dangerous because the river was in flood of coarse and it was flowing very fast and could easily sweep you off your feet and down into the water so you will have to be careful.


Conclusion: I think that this is really terrible because lots of people like to go to the glaciers and now they can’t also some people might be stuck up there. It was scary how the river was so strong to actually knock the bridge over.
