    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING... Students will gain a basic understanding of human migration and views on immigration and immigrants over the past century by exploring and investigating these histories with a specific emphasis on New Zealand.
    • We are exploring the history of Maori and Indian racial segregation over the past 100 years - particularly in South Auckland - so that students will be able to exhibit empathy with these events and be able to draw connections with contemporary attitudes towards racism in New Zealand.
