Where The Heck Is Manurewa?

>Where The Heck Is Manurewa?

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.

last term

What I liked more about last year was playing games outside with my friends and with my teacher. I also really like doing art and learning heaps and always finishing off my work. We always got to play games on the computer if we finished our work. I really liked listening to music while we doing our work. And also my favourite thing I liked last year was doing my volcano and exploding it with my friend it was really cool I liked it and it was fun too and always going to the pools and going on trips with my class.


What Ididn’t like last year was people being mean to me and me doing what I did last year I hated it last year but I reckon I will do more better this year. And what i really didn’t like last year was moving all our furniture to the juniors side that was hard and tyring i was tired. Then when we finished. Our class had a shared lunch it was cool I was starving we had cake,drinks lollies chips biscuts. It was funny cause I didn’t like the year 8’s mixed up with the year 7’s.
