Signing of the Treaty

Did you know before the signing of the Treaty there were some problems? The Maori people arrived to New Zealand first. Later the Pakeha came. They had problems sharing the land. There were fights between people. The Treaty of Waitangi was put in place to help these two groups of people share. It was to keep people safe too.

Watch my animation, it tells this story.

When people arrive in New Zealand

My animation shows how the Maori and European people arrived in New Zealand. It also shows how they argued about the land. They signed a treaty because it was going to help them live on the land together.

Why do we have a treaty in Aotearoa?

In the beginning the Maori people lived here first. The Europeans arrived later. They had some disagreements when having to live together. The treaty helped them to share and live happily. This is my animation that shows this story.
