Active earth


This term at Pt England school we are studying Volcanoes and what makes them erupt. Our topic is 'Active earth' This is all about volcanoes in most places volcanoes are all over the place.

Also what I have learn today is that the plates under the earth,when they collide they cause earthquakes and sometimes volcanoes erupting. Sometimes the volcanoes leave heaps of ash in the air.

Also some eruptions can take out a whole town or village and also can kill up to 60,00 people.

Thanks to this website for the photo:
