History

Studying history is important because you learn stuff from the past so you improve the future. I like these 3 Historic events ... in 1642 Abel Tasman anchored at Golden Bay, in 1769 NZ was sighted by Captain James Cook and in 1840 The Treaty of Waitangi was signed and 3 more recent events that have happened in our country are the coronavirus, Matariki and the Mosque shootings. We are reading Gavin Bishop's account of his childhood in the 1950s.
