We made our own treaties!

We had a fun time today agreeing on some treaties to make things fairer in Karearea. We chose three problems that we needed to sort out, agreed on some rules and then signed them, just like the English and Maori chiefs back in 1840.

WAITANGI DAY

Today we learned about Waitangi Day and why we had a holiday yesterday. We talked in simpler terms about Maori coming to Aotearoa/New Zealand, and pretended our junior playground was New Zealand. 
We learned what happened when the Treaty was signed a long time ago and the troubles afterwards. We finished our session by showing how happy we are to live in such an AWESOME COUNTRY!!!
