Waitangi Day

On Tuesday, we started to get to know Waitangi Day, some people don't celebrate it, probably because they don't know Waitangi Day or they haven't been in New Zealand for so long or They don't really know much about New Zealand's holiday and its history or they don't celebrate it because they don't want to. 

What happened when people celebrate Waitangi Day? Well, I don't really know much about that because people have different opinions about Waitangi Day and the way they celebrate it. But based on what I read on an article that I chose about Waitangi Day is that Waitangi Day celebrations haven't been that peaceful, because of people, they protest and conflict about the Treaty of Waitangi, the article didn't say why they conflict but it was like an explanation why people protests although it's not enough. It says that it's because of the complex nature of the original treaty discussions that the New Zealand Wars followed, and the way people view the relevance of the treaty for the New Zealand Today. 

Why did Waitangi Day happen?  Waitangi Day celebrations happen because it reflects a significant day in New Zealand history. 

When does Waitangi Day happen? It happens or celebrated on the 6th of February.

How it happened? It happened when the British people and Maori's come together.

Where it happened? in, of course, New Zealand but some people go to churched, whares or to Waitangi to celebrate or they go to a restaurant but most people celebrate it at home.

I've worked on answering the questions that are related to Waitangi Day and remembering, understanding, applying and analyzing. 

I've learnt so much about Waitangi Day, how it all came together like how, when where, what, why Waitangi Day is celebrated until today, and its history.

What do I feel about this? I feel really great because I've learnt so much about Waitangi Day and I got to know more about the New Zealand history.
