Waitangi Day
















Why are these people carrying this banner?

The Treaty Of Waitangi was signed on the 6th of February 1840 in a town in the North Island of New Zealand. It was signed by 500 Maori Chiefs and some people from the British Crown. It is an agreement meaning that people of other countries were aloud to use the land. It was made an official public holiday in 1964. The people in the photo are protesting to try and get the people living in New Zealand to try and follow the treaty.
