Aotearoa Histories 3 - Social Science and Literacy

Courses Description

Head of Pathway: Mr G. Van den Hoeven.

What does it mean to be a “New Zealander’? What makes us different? What are the stories that we tell ourselves about who we are? Who gets to be a New Zealander? 

This unit will explore national identity and how it is formed. We will investigate the way our government has used war and discriminatory immigration policies to define what a New Zealander is and who gets to be one.
