Hur 1(Gold Rush what I learnt)

 Hello today im going to talk to you about what I was learning about. 

In hurumanu 1 we are learning what gold mines are. So im going to tell you what I learnt. First we had to make a blog about what we know about mines without looking it up, and what discrimination is. I didn't know much about mines but I did know a lot about discrimination. Now I know somethings about the mines. 

In the 19th century discovering gold was a way out of poverty.(another world for poor) From the 1860s gold rush followed gold rush.(Here is the link where I got the information)  By Christmas 1861, there were nearly ten thousand prospectors in and around Gabriel’s Gully. Many had come from the gold rushes in Australia and California.They were among the lucky few. Most men lived in hope. (The link were I got the information) 



Before Pākehā came to New Zealand, Maori had no use for gold. There were only a few girl gold miners New Zealand. Little Biddy she was around  1.2 metres tall yet she works as hard as the others.





Here is a photo of Biddy.



Chinese miners were encouraged to come and rework the Otago goldfields.

Discrimination  to the Chinese was really bad back in the day, they would pick on what they wear look like and all the things that they didn't like about them  Did you know in the 1866 there were less than 200 Chinese miners in Otago, but by April 1868 the Chinese population had increased to 1270. The population peaked in 1881 with just under 5000 miners? (here is the link I got it from)

I hope you enjoyed reading what I know about mines. If there is anything that I can make my blog any better then what it is please tell me. Thank you and have a good day!

Gold Mining( What I know With out reading the story)(Hurunanu 1)

 Hello today im going to talk to you about what I know about Gold Rush. 

So first I have not be learning about Gold Mining for a long time so. I learnt want gold rush is from my dad watching a TV show called Gold Rush. So it was a big thing for my dad because he would want as to watch the show, so if we needed it for school or if we wanted to do something like Gold Rush when were older for a job. 

Here is a photo of what a Gold Mine should look like.



I only know a little bit about Gold Mines

Gold mines were used to get Gold for money. Hard rock gold mining is used for different things. Like... people would speed hours and hour making a hole to find gold and they have a pathway. 


What is Discrimination? 

Discrimination has been with us for a long time. Discrimination is being racist to some one that you don't like were there from, and making fun of what they look like or what they like to eat. It's basically making fun of people you hate or not like.   

Thank you for reading my blog if there is anything that i can make my blog better please tell me and have a good day

B & E

 Today im going to talk to you about my B & E went. 

On Wednesday we had B & E (businesses and expenses)  I got to learn how to run a business  and it wasn't easy, because for the first hour only one person came. But once said that we were selling candy and slime they all wanted to come. We cant only make $25.00. If we said we were just selling candy and slime we could of made more.I was not expecting as to have not much people. I was hoping we got more because people like slime and candy, but they didn't like to play games to win candy or slime. Here is the candy we got and slime we made.
