11. Do you think that you would have behaved in a different way if you were in the same circumstances? Explain.

Yes, I would’ve behaved in a different way. I would’ve been more organised and I would’ve lived with my uncle or relatives instead of a friend because it would be someone I would trust and have known for a long time. I would also evacuate from my home immediately after knowing there was a bushfire.

10. If you could meet the story-teller, what other aspects of their experience of the natural disaster would you like to ask them about?

If I could meet the story-teller I would ask her what a fire plan is like, what to do and how she felt doing it.

9. What do you think was the main message in the story?

That you should always be prepared, no matter what. Anything could happen and you should do things in advance or you would regret it.

8. Was there anything that surprised you about the story?

Yes, how Bonnie Lumsden-Keys said that when she asked most people in Warburton about the fire they didn’t really care. It made her angry and I was surprised that some people didn’t take the bush fire seriously.

7. How did you feel during the screening of the story?

I felt upset at the beginning of the story when Bonnie Lumsden-Keys claimed that her and her family didn’t have a place to stay while there was a fire. However, felt relieved after her mother found a fire plan to share with another three families and I was glad they were safe.

6. Did the story-teller change as a result of their experience of the natural disaster? How?

Yes I think the story-teller changed as a result of the experience because she learnt that bad things could happen and you would always have to be prepared for the unprepared.

5. What problem/s did the story-teller face? How did the story-teller go about fixing any problems they had?

The problems the story-teller faced was being a bit unorganised but they fixed the problem by remembering to have a fire plan the next time something like that would happen.
