Isabella's dad Paolo talked to the children about earthquakes and how buildings, roads and railway lines can be affected and showed some wonderful photographs of when he worked on a project to test the strength of buildings in simulated types of situations such as earthquakes. The children loved his visit and they were keen to tell everyone about his presentation. They even had a mini earthquake drill and they learnt about some other places where they could stand if it was necessary. Isabella was his assistant and was a great 'human' earthquake showing us the three types of earthquakes that can happen.
Thanks Paolo so much for sharing your experiences with the children.
