Bastion Point Occupation

 Bastion Point occupation

Hello, welcome to my blog,

Today this blog post will be presenting Batsion Point Occupation

here is question one on my work sheet I have to do

1. Why did the iwi move onto the park?: After signing the Treaty of Waitangi lost most of their land in Aukland, Bastion point was confiscated and later became a council park.

2. where did the food from?: It goes donated to them, they were given a sack of spuds or some cabages 

3. what are spuds? a spud is another word for a potato

4. to forcibly remove protestors and destroy their make-shift camp.

5. Why do you think the buildings were demolished?. I'm not sure about this one maybe because the homes that they paid for wanted to knock it down so it would be a waste of money.

6. In my opinion was the occupation successful?. Kind of maybe it lasted a while but in the end, they got their land back so kind of it worked out for them.

Feel free to leave a comment and have a good day :)
