The People of Parihaka

In Room 1 we have been learning about the people of Parihaka. The story of Parihaka is when the soldiers came to the village and the people heard they were coming. They prepared by baking them bread and the children were dancing and singing. The soldiers felt guilty that they were destroying their houses and taking the fathers to jail. They felt guilty because the people were greeting them very nicely and were not attacking them or fighting. Once the men got out of jail they came home peacefully and started to rebuild their houses and town. The people of Parihaka believed in God and peace.
