Different Auckland town centres have adopted Rugby teams from countries that qualified for the World Cup.

I found out information about:

The location in Auckland;

Something special about this place;

A 'potted' history of the place;

If it has it's own symbol of some sort. (If we couldn't find a symbol we chose a picture that told more about the place).

Manurewa is the southernmost major suburb of Manukau City, one of the four cities that make up the metropolitan area of Auckland in the North Island of New Zealand. It is located 6km south of the Manukau City Centre, and 26km southeast of the Auckland CBD.

Manurewa is Māori for "drifting kite". The name refers to a kite flying competition where a kite line was severed and drifted away. The kite's owner was the chief Tamapahore who had a pā (fortified village) on Matuku-tururu (Wiri Mountain). The name Manurewa commemorates the incident by the name Te manu rewa o Tamapahore - The drifting kite of Tamapahore.


Manurewa, Auckland, New Zealand.
