Early Maori Enterprise



Enterprise and Economics was first introduced, by our Maori ancestors, before the Europeans settled in New Zealand. Coastal Maori sold Seafood (Kaimoana), while the Inlands preserved birds and berries. The Maori's would often trade valuable items, not knowing it's true value. Maori had grew a number of plants that had been bought by the first arrivals. By the 19th century Maori's ownership passed out.

Our challenge was to make notes, turn them into 5 sentences and to finally write them into a 10 syllable sentence.

Exploring our national current events

We explored the different types of current events that are happening in New Zealand, thought about why the story made the news and plotted the location on a google map. Most of the articles that Marieta and I read happened in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Together our favourite article was the new Wellington sculpture showing a large hand balanced on two fingers, with a human face on the palm.
