secrets I keep

Secrets I keep

I bounced my sister on the draw and she cracked her head.
I flipped and landed on my sister.
I hit my cousin.
I was dancing and I hit a person.
I broke my cousin's leg.
I made my uncle's nose bleed when I was 4.
 I uppercut my uncle when I was 4.
I Russell my sister.
I hide from my mum.
I was very naughty.

Te Tiriti o Waitangi

Te Tiriti o Waitangi

The treaty is a very important story, in 1769 Captain Cook arrived in Aotearoa and he was taking all the leaves and the plants and they were shooting the birds and whales.  On 6 February 1840, the treaty was signed and some chiefs did not want to sign the treaty. In 1845 the New Zealand Wars started with guns and spears. In 1865 the native court was assembled. In 1872 the New Zealand Wars finished. In 1960 Waitangi Day was made and 13 years later it became a national holiday all over the world. In 1989 the modern treaty settlement was agreed over the land of the Waitomo caves. Now people go there sometimes to the place where the war started and they would take photos on Waitangi Day or any other day in the year some people go there on Waitangi Day.
