Hello everyone,
Today I am talking about Kate Sheppard and about how she helped get to women to vote, I have write a paragraph about Kate Sheppard and the women rights so here you go-
Where was Kate Sheppard born?-
In Liverpool,England in 1847.
Why do you think Kate Sheppard was placed on the New Zealand $10 note?-
Because she placed a petition for women to vote to stop the woman suffrage and New Zealand appreciated it.
WCTU Stands for?-
Women's Christian Temperance Union.
What were three actions Kate Sheppard took in her quest for women to have the right to vote?
1.In 1845 she joined the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU).
2.Kate Sheppard travelled all over New Zealand writing to newspapers, holding public meetings and talking to Members of Parliament.
3.She wrote a petition for men and women to write in the petition that was signed by 32,000 people.
