Social Studies - Parihaka

For our second assesment in Social Studies, we had to make a map about Parihaka and what happened there. After we did all that we had we had to create a blog post to finish and complete this assessment, in the blog post we had to answer questions that was given about the topic. Here is my blog post that I have completed.

What is Parihaka and what happened there?

About 1600 troops invaded the western Taranaki settlement of Parihaka, which had come to symbolise peaceful resistance to the property of Maori land. Parihaka was a vacant area that was owned by the Maori settlement before they were taken over by the European settlers. The place was a symbol of peace because they resisted the colonisation.

  1. That's pretty good! It could be more detailed and a bit longer, though. But otherwise, pretty decent!
