Well done room one students. About half of you managed to get online and comment on our blog homework. When did Gabriel Read discover gold and was it him who discovered it first? I'm hoping to see everyone else's research in their homework books.
You can see from what people found that there can be quite a difference between different books, internet sites etc. Which is likely to be the most reliable and true I wonder?
It seems the general agreement is that Gabriel found gold in May 1861 near the Tuapeka river, near Lawrence in Central Otago and thousands of people rushed to find gold for themselves. This would have bought a lot of people and industry into the district.
Keep up the good work and remember the importance of 'triangular' research and referencing.
