New migrants to Whangarei can attend a seminar to give them insight into the Treaty of Waitangi.
The Whangarei Citizens Advice Bureau's Treaty of Waitangi presentation, part of its Migrants Connect seminars, has always attracted a large turnout.
The CAB offers four seminars a year to New Zealand's newest citizens. Most presentations attracted an average of 30 people, but the Treaty of Waitangi seminar had always been popular, this year's presenter and Whangarei CAB co-ordinator, Moea Armstrong, said.
Migrants attending the seminar about the country's founding document will learn about the Treaty and the Declaration of Independence and their impact now.
"We also owe new migrants an explanation of our history. While they already understand their own country's experience of colonisation, our history is unique," Ms Armstrong said.
