Hello Readers for the last couple of days we have been making slides about Mahinga Kai and yesterday we were learning about Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We had to listen to a video about Te Tiriti o Waitangi and we had questions that we had to answer. In the 1830s the Maori population dropped down to 8.000 to 7.000 the population dropped because people were getting sick and they started to die.
The missioners were mad because of what was happening the British people were taking over all of the land and there were lots of prostitution. The Tiriti of Waitangi was because of Rats, Water, Fire and they were buried. When it was 1833 they tried to resolve the situation by using the united tribes The British saw France as a threat so they tried to take the Maori's land. Edward Gibson was the person who set up the New Zealand company. the British send Hobson to stop the war. People from around the country signed the Treaty there were 40 people that signed it the Treaty wasn't signed probably because it wasn't translated properly Tino Ranga Tiratanga means having the authority. Sovereignty means crown controlled Hone Heke cut down the flags to take revenge when the Maori and British were having war the Maori people used methods like using flax and building trenches they used guns and wood the flax made the people take longer to get people over to the Maori.

Ka pai, Jesse!
ReplyDeleteYou shared heaps of great info from what you have been learning about in this Hurumanu. I like that it is all in your own words. I really like learning about history and I have been enjoying learning more by reading the Bh blog posts you guys have done with Mrs Hastie and Whaea Raewyn.
Keep up the great work. What has been the most interesting thing you've learned about NZ history?

Well done Jesse, you have recalled heaps of great facts about the history of New Zealand. A small error is that you have put 7,000-8,000 Maori people were in NZ in the 1830s, but it is meant to be 70,000 - 80,000 people. Also, 500 chiefs signed the treaty after it had toured around NZ. Keep up the good work, checking that your facts are correct.
