LI: To explain what The Treaty of Waitangi is and why is it important to the people in Aotearoa.
For this task, we had to research about the Treaty of Waitangi and the reason why it’s important to New Zealand. The Treaty of Waitangi is an agreement between the Maori Chiefs and the British. There is also the three P’s, Protection, Partnership and Participation. We also looked at the Art of the Treaty from the 80s. We then read a book called “Te Tiriti o Waitangi” which is made by Ross Calman, Mark Derby, and Toby Morris. We thought of reason why the Treaty was important to this country, New Zealand.
I found this activity interesting because there was some intriguing facts and informations about the Treaty.
