(The words ‘When an earthquake happens’ are floating on screen. But a sudden shaking breaks them and they fall to the ground.)

When an earthquake happens, you need to think. Is it hard to stand up?

(A figure stands next to the floating words ‘Is it hard to stand up?’. But the ground starts shaking and the words break and fall to the ground. The figure drops to their hands and knees and covers their head with their hands.)

Or has it lasted longer than a minute?

(The figure on the floor stays where they are while the words ‘Or has it lasted…’ appear on screen. The figure raises their head while the words ‘… Longer than a minute’ also appear. The words tick down from the top of the screen like the hand of a clock.)

(A picture of a hill with some houses on it now fills the screen. The ocean is at the bottom of the hill.)

Then, if you’re near the coast…

(A location pin hovers above the lowest house.)

… Move immediately to the nearest high ground…

(The ocean becomes a tsunami wave sweeping across the hill. The location pins flies up to the top of the hill out of range of the water.)

… Or as far inland as possible.

(The ocean disappears and the hill falls away to flat land with some houses on it. The location pin is over the house on the far left. The location pin flies off to the right leaving the houses behind.)

(The location pin disappears leaving a figure standing on the ground.)

Don’t wait for an official tsunami warning.

Go immediately.

(The words ‘Go immediately’ appear and bump into the figure causing them to run off screen.)

(The figure is now on top of a hill with their family.)

Then stay there until you’ve been given the all clear.

(A thumbs up icon appears next to the family.)

If an earthquake is Long or Strong, Get Gone.

Mehemea he Roa, he Kaha rānei tētahi rū whenua: Me Wehe Tonu.

Kia wawe te neke atu ki te papa teitei tino tata, ki uta tae rā anō ka taea. Kaua e tatari ki tētahi whakatūpato ngaru taitoko ōkawa.

(E rewa ana ngā kupu ‘When an earthquake happens’ ki te mata. Heoi ka pakaru i te rū ohorere, ā, ka taka ki te papa.)

Ina pā tētahi rū whenua, me mātua whakaaro e koe. He uaua te tū?

(Ka tū tētahi tangata i te taha o ngā kupu e rewa ana ‘Is it hard to stand up?’. Heoi ka tīmata te papa ki te rū, ka pakaru ngā kupu, ka taka ki te papa. Ka pāheke te tangata ki ōna ringaringa, ki ōna turi, ka hīpokitia tōna upoko ki ōna ringaringa.)

Kua roa ake i te kotahi meneti?

(Ka noho tonu te tangata i te papa i te wāhi kei reira ia i te wā ka puta ngā kupu ‘Or has it lasted…’ ki te mata. Ka mairangatia e te tangata tōna upoko i te wā ka puta hoki ngā kupu ‘… Longer than a minute’. Ka rere iho ngā kupu mai i runga o te mata pērā i ngā ringa o tētahi karaka.)

(He atahanga o tētahi hiwi, he whare kei runga, e whakakī ana i te mata ināianei. Kei te pūtake o te hiwi te moana.)

Kātahi, mēnā e tata ana koe ki tai...

(Ka topaki tētahi pine wāhi ki runga i te whare tino hahaka.)

... Kia wawe te neke atu ki te papa teitei tino tata...

(Ka huri te moana ki tētahi ngaru taitoko e rere ana i te hiwi. Ka rere atu te pine wāhi ki te tihi o te hiwi kei waho i te pānga o te wai.)

... Ki uta tae rā anō ka taea rānei.

(Ka ngaro atu te moana, ka horo atu te hiwi ki te papatairite kei reira ētahi whare. Kei runga te pine tauwāhi i te whare ki te taha mauī. Ka rere whakatematau atu te pine tauwāhi, ā, me te waiho i ngā whare ki muri.)

(Ka ngaro atu te pine wāhi, ā, e toe ana tētahi tangata e tū ana ki te papa.)

Kaua e tatari ki tētahi whakatūpato ngaru taitoko ōkawa.

Kia wawe tonu te haere.

(Ka puta mai ngā kupu ‘Go immediately’, ā, ka tutuki ki te tangata mā reira ia e oma atu i te mata.)

(Ināianei kei runga i tētahi hiwi te tangata rātou ko tōna whānau.)

Kātahi ka noho ki reira tae rā anō kia tukuna te kōrero kua wātea.

(Ka puta mai tētahi tohu kōnui ki runga ki te taha o te whānau.)

Mehemea ko tētahi rū whenua He Roa, He Kaha rānei, Me Wehe Tonu.

(Ka kitea te tohu a Te Rākau Whakamarumaru ki te mata. Ka puta mai ngā kupu ‘Long? Or Strong Get Gone’ ki raro, ka whāia e te url www.civildefence.govt.nz)
