Poukai

A kids version of the story of the Poukai, King Tawhiao's 1884 gathering.

This children’s book retells the story of the Poukai. The Poukai is a gathering instituted by King Tawhiao in 1884. The Poukai was a way of looking after and feeding the Kings people driven from their homeland after the land wars in 1863. The story is written in a simplistic way for children to gain a better understanding of the Poukai. This book provides readers with a very basic view of the events that occurred leading up to the establishment of the Poukai and a brief overview of how a Poukai operates today. The book is written in Maaori.
