Her Stories: Kate Sheppard (6 Weeks)

Why was New Zealand the first country in the world to give women the vote? In this six-week course, students will explore the story of Kate Sheppard and the suffrage movement that changed New Zealand history. Together we’ll investigate why women were excluded from voting, why voting matters, how ordinary people create social change, and the lasting impact of winning the vote in 1893. A fascinating blend of history, citizenship, and social change for curious learners aged 11+years
