Waitangi day




It’s the day  when some of the Maori  chiefs  and William Hobson the british representative  signed the treaty of Waitangi and this day we celebrate as a public holiday.

The treaty was signed in 1934 the Maori people are under Queen Elizabeth’s crown rules after that the Pakeha cut down the maori flag.

On Waitangi Day people go  to the beach  and spend time with their families.

I know someone

I know someone who can

I know someone who can
play “I’m yours” on a guitar
and sing it as well.
I know someone that can
speak Samoan.
I know someone that can
be dizzy and still catch a rugby ball.
I know someone who is
a chameleon because he can hide well.
I know someone who can
pretend he is flying so high like an eagle.
I know someone who can
crack his neck.
And that someone is

ME!
