Jessie Mackay sost

To day I read a passage on the famous New Zealander called Jessie Mackay.

Some thing I learnt:
Jessie Mackay was a typical kiwi farm daughter. She was on a farm in rangiora just above christchurch canterbury. She was homeschooled until the age of thirteen. Jessie was trained in teaching in christchurch. Because of an illness the love of teaching was for given and she became an editor and writer of the canterbury times. Jessie was a key fundamental of new zealand writing and poetry. She normally wrote about the social wellbeing of the maori wellbeing.

Describe how poetry and journalism can help create a sense of national identity?
With out the knowledge of outer limit of your community brings a preparation of your life's day. This could be shown in how you treat people because some one else got hurt. It also brings people together talking about the news.

Find two pieces of evidence that show Jessie was well known in New Zealand before she died. 
Jessie was popular because she got an award that is named after her. This award is called Jessie Mackay memorial prize for verse. her books can still be found on the internet.

Explain how Jessie's name is still kept alive in New Zealand?
New Zealand provides a free schooling system that provides a knowledge for kiwi kids. It means in a subject like social studies we can learn about New Zealand.

Quote the words Jessie used about early New Zealand poets?"We plowed a lonely furrow". Demonstration of appreciation.
