Welcome to another post on my blog. This week for Wānanga, we watched a docudrama film about the Treaty of Waitangi. Then, we had to write a summary reflection about the film including the main points of the film.
Text Title: The Treaty of Waitangi - What Really Happened
Text Type: Docudrama Film
Text Creator: Peter Burger (Director)
Text Purpose: To inform us about what happened in the Treaty of Waitangi.
Date: 12 February 2021
The Crown wrote out the treaty. There were many debates and discussions about whether Māori should sign the treaty - because they were worried about their land, people, rights being taken away. So, the Māori chiefs signed the treaty. Later, tobacco and blankets were given away.
