K4K

On thursday me and my class went to K4K to practice for the night. Sadly I was not going because my voice was dried out, When we went to the practise there were so many little kids. I think that was the first time I ever felt tall, We had to wait about 10 - 15 minutes till we could go in so we just got ready for it. After about 10 minutes we went in the stadium was HUGE. The people who Jakie clark and Nathan king, They both had beautiful voices. What I was angry about was we couldn’t go to the toilets till morning tea which took a really long time, After about 20 songs we had morning tea I made new friends but I also made enemies. After  morning tea it was solo rehearsal I have a nice voice but I was to shy so I passed, all of the soloists were great but I like the first song it loud and noise but it was smooth and calm at the same time . When it finished a lady told schools to go one by one which took a very long time. When we got on the bus I felt sleepy so I took a little nap. And that was my time at K4K.

Persuasive writing.

firmly believe that exotic

plants should be cut down

because native animals are dying.

Also because they are not supposed to be in NZ,

so that NZ species can live and so there can be more native plants.

Because they are not

supposed to be in NZ.

So if we cut it off and plant

1500 native trees

NZ will be a better place.

What Exotic plants are

So that NZ species can live.

If we cut off the exotic trees than there

Will be more Native animals.

What Native animals look like

So that there will be more native plants.

So there will be a lot more Native plants which

means there will be more Native animals

and alot more freshens.

How many native trees are in New Zealand?

New Zealand native trees by botanical names: R – Z

There are around five hectares of cultivated

native plant collections and about 96 hectares of mature

and regenerating native forest

Parihaka Amihuti

Who founded parihaka? The village was founded about 1866
by Maori chiefs Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kākahi on land seized by the
government during the post-New Zealand Wars land confiscations of the 1860s.

What does parihaka mean? Parihaka was a Māori settlement in Taranaki in the 1860's
when New Zealand was a British colony, and land was being divided up and given to
European settlers.

Why is parihaka important to new zealand?The Invasion of Parihaka was contributed
to by a number of causes such as pressure on the government, by European settlers,

Waitangi Tribunal allowed for Maori to move on and to accept what had happened in
the past.

When was parihaka invaded?About 1600 government troops invaded the western
Taranaki settlement of Parihaka, which had come to symbolise peaceful resistance
to the confiscation of Māori land. Founded in the mid-1860s.

Where did parihaka take place?Located seven kilometres inland from the coast near
Pungarehu, Parihaka is a small Taranaki settlement with a big history. The events that
took place in and around the area, particularly between 1860 and 1900, have affected the
political, cultural and spiritual dynamics of the entire country.

How did parihaka start? The Parihaka settlement was founded about 1866, at the close of the Second Taranaki War and a year after almost all Māori land in Taranaki had been confiscated by the Government to punish "rebel" Māori.
