Hītori Māori | Māori history
We are preparing to close this site soon as this content has now moved to Tāhūrangi.
Tāhūrangi is the new online curriculum hub for Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga | Ministry of Education.
Māori history encompasses the complete history of peoples in Aotearoa NZ, from the earliest Polynesian navigators, to those who interacted with English colonists, to the occupiers of land and the settlers of grievances, through to the movers, the shakers, and the everyday people of our communities today.
Pūtātara
This resource, aimed at incorporating sustainability and global citizenship across the curriculum in Aotearoa New Zealand, supports schools and teachers to develop learning opportunities that are place-based, inquiry-led, and focused on participation for change.
Tools for primary source analysis
The National Library's primary source analysis tools are designed for ākonga from years 1–13 in Aotearoa NZ schools. Ākonga can examine different primary sources, then use the collation tool – Kohinga taunaki matua | A place to collect your evidence – to bring together evidence from different sources.
