Today we were watching one of our videos in social studies. It was about the New Zealand Wars. Then the missionaries thought that there was a spy around them so they killed the man they thought was a spy. Then there was a Maori that was going to ambushing British and they killed seven people in 1864.
A bit later in the story, the New Zealand war was dragged on for about 20 years 3000 people died but 2000 of those people were Maori. There was also a man called Te Kuiti who stole a supply ship from the British in 1868 and then he started a war with the British. Someone tried to stop the war but the Maori had an advantage because they already had a plan set out.
