Parihaka information report
Plan for writing -
Parihaka
P1/introduction-
P2 - government promised tribe land, they didn’t, they found a piece of land that hadn’t been lived on for 10 years so they made a new village called Parihaka.
P3 - Pakeha came and tried to kick Maori off the land. Maori were peaceful. Peaceful protests (fences/crops). Leaders were arrested.
P4 - Men were released. Monthly meeting still held, people are still peaceful.
Conclusion - Village is still standing strong today.
Parihaka was a famous village because they were peaceful during the landwars.
The government promised the people of Parihaka land but the government did not give them the land. So the people of Parihaka found a piece of land and and lived on it for 10 years.
The soldiers came to kick the Maori off because the government believed that the land belonged to them. But the people of Parihaka protested peacefully because they were peaceful people. They tried to make them stop fighting back peacefully by taking down their fences and destroying their crops. This frustrated European settlers who kept putting the fences back up and replanting the crops.
Their leaders, Tohu and Te Whiti, were arrested by the soldiers and taken to a prison in Dunedin. Other men from Parihaka were arrested and sent to various prisons as well. The men that got arrested got set free because there were to much people getting arrested and the jail was to full so they got no choice but to set them free. There were monthly meetings but they were still peaceful.
The Parihaka is still standing tall today and people are still living in it. They also honor the people who died during the landwars.
