Sir Āpirana Ngata and Dame Whina Cooper were both influential leaders who fought for Māori
rights. Āpirana Ngata was a lawyer and politician. He worked hard to give rights to Māori land
owners, and he also spent a lot of his career encouraging Māori to preserve the culture - haka,
poi, whakairo (carving), waiata (song), sport and the construction of more marae around
Aotearoa, New Zealand.
Whina Cooper was the first president of the Māori Women’s Welfare League, which worked on
improving health, education, housing and welfare for Māori women in New Zealand in the
1950s. She led the Māori land hikoi (march) from Northland to Wellington to protest against the
loss of Māori land. She was nearly 80 years old at the time. Both of these individuals are
examples of wise, inspiring leaders and role models.

DeleteHi Kamaea
ReplyDeleteWell done on completing another Summer Learning Journey activity. it's great that you look up to your cousin and see her as a role model. It sounds like you and your cousin Milah have a lot of fun doing things together. What type of YouTube videos do you guys like to watch together? I personally like to watch videos on games or historical battles. Keep up the good work!
