Maori-Pakeha Relations

I picked this topic because i feel that it is good to be learning about our past and how the Pakeha tried to steal our land,rights and our language.

Around 1830 there were about 300 Pakeha living in New Zealand and at least 100,000 Maori.Trade had grown between visiting whaling ships and Maori-in return for goods such as muskets or iron tools Maori provided food,water and firewood.Maori became valued as crews on board whaling ships,and began to travel the world.In 1796 a Maori pilot was recorded working in Rio De Janeiro on the British whaler mermaid.Shore whaling stations began and some European Whalers married Maori women.Europeans lived under tribal authority.

Kia Ora tangata

This is some of my work.

Once upon a time there were three sisters walking along then they came to a stop.

There’s a river but no bridge the sisters were stuck then out of nowhere something appears.But they don’t know what it is then it starts to speak *you get one wish each*

The oldest sister went first *I wish for a wand as strong as any other* then the thing said it’s name my name is…Death.The middle and the youngest child we’re scared the oldest not so much then death makes a wand out of an jungle tree near by.The oldest walks to her sisters standing there and with her wand she makes a bridge the oldest sister says bye to here sisters and leaves to a nearby village.Now it’s the middle sisters turn she asks for

a special rose perfume that whenever she sprays it they die so death grabs a rose that is right next to her and smashes it, puts it in a bottle and water and there was her perfume.She says goodbye to the youngest and sets off on an adventure.”Now says death”.

The youngest sister named Emma stood still silently looking at death.I wonder what she was going to ask for.Was she going to ask for something powerful.Did she want anything at all. Maybe she wanted a little pony.(Emma)”Death can I have… a unicorn”

You should of seen his face he was shocked that all she wanted was a unicorn.Death flys and grabs cloud from the sky took a piece of pink chalk and smashed it and mixed it in the cloud and added some body parts and unicorn pop out.Yay Emma yells she is so happy.

Now it will go thank you death:she flys away,yells thank you and vanishes.The oldest sister Olivia was at the village then she saw her worst enemy brittney why was she her worst enemy well.

Tadaaaaaa and done
