Manurewa is a suburb in South Auckland, New Zealand, located 6 km (3.7 mi) south of Manukau Central, and 26 km (16 mi) southeast of the Auckland City Centre. It is home to the Auckland Botanic Gardens, which receives over a million visitors a year. Manurewa has a high proportion of non-European ethnicities, making it one of the most multi-cultural suburbs in New Zealand. Employment for many is at the many companies of nearby Wiri, Papakura, and at the steel mill at Glenbrook.

The area has been inhabited since at least the 13th century, and has cultural significance for Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua. Manurewa developed as a rural community after the Manurewa railway station opened in 1875, becoming a borough in 1937. The area saw suburban growth in the 1950s and 1960s, and became a shopping hub when Southmall Manurewa opened in 1967.

Etymology

[edit]

The name Manurewa is a variant of the Māori word for "kite", manu aute, used by in local Waiohua dialect.[3] The translation "soaring bird" gained popularity in the 1920s among English speakers.[4] The name is a shortened form of Te Manurewa o Tamapahore ("The Drifted-away Kite of Tamapahore"), a name which recalls a story involving Waiohua ancestor Tamapahore. One day the men who lived at Matukutūruru and Matukutūreia decided to fly kites, and Tamapahore's was the kite that flew the highest. His brother Tamapahure caused the chord of Tamapahore's kite to break. Tamapahore left the area in search of his valuable kite, eventually finding it at Whenuakite on the Coromandel Peninsula.[5][6]

Geography

[edit]

Manurewa is located in South Auckland, inland from the south-eastern Manukau Harbour, north of the Pahurehure Inlet. Manurewa is south of the Puhinui Creek,[7] and north of the Papakura Stream.[8] Manurewa is at the southern border of the Auckland volcanic field. Two volcanoes are located to the north in Wiri: Matukutūreia (also known as McLaughlins Mountain), which erupted an estimated 48,000 years ago, and Matukutūruru (Wiri Mountain), which erupted an estimated 30,000 years ago.[9] Matukutūruru was quarried, primarily by the New Zealand Railways Corporation.[10]

History

[edit]

Māori history

[edit]

Manurewa has been inhabited since at least the 13th century.[10] Matukutūreia and Matukutūruru were home to two hilltop pā, collectively known as Matukurua.[5] The names of the mountains commemorate a story of two chiefs. The chief of Matukutūruru ("the bittern standing at ease") was captured while eel fishing. The chief of Matukutūreia ("the vigilant bittern") saved the pā and the people of Matukutūruru.[5] Over 8,000 hectares of stonefield gardens were tended by Tāmaki Māori peoples on the lower slopes of the volcanoes,[11][12] where crops such as kūmara and bracken fern root were grown.[13]

The Manurewa area was settled by Ngā Riki, who were one of the three Tāmaki Māori groups who joined together to form the Waiohua in the 17th and 18th-centuries.[14] During this time, the two pā were home to the Ngāi Huatau hapū of Waiohua,[5] settled by Huatau, daughter of Huakaiwaka.[15][3] The chief Huarangi was based at Matukutūruru with his wife Takawai of Ngāi Tahuhu. After her death, he married Kohe, a high ranking woman from Ngāti Pāoa, a union that was widely disapproved by the hapū. This dissent eventually led to a division in the family, with the children of Takawai settling at Matukutūruru, and Huarangi moving with Kohe to Matukutūreia.[5]

Around the year 1740, a conflict between Ngāti Whātua and Waiohua led to the death of paramount chief Kiwi Tāmaki, who became the main occupants of the Tāmaki isthmus and Māngere to the north.[14][16] Ngāti Whātua was significantly smaller than the Waiohua confederation and chose to focus life at Onehunga, Māngere and Ōrākei, meaning that Waiohua were able to re-establish a presence in South Auckland.[17][16]

The Manurewa area has significance for Waiohua iwi, especially Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua, who descent from Te Ata i Rehia, the daughter of Huatau who was born on Matukutūreia,[18] and Te Ākitai Waiohua.[19]

Colonial era

[edit]

In January 1836 missionary William Thomas Fairburn brokered a land sale between Tāmaki Māori chiefs, Pōtatau Te Wherowhero and Turia of Ngāti Te Rau, covering the majority of modern-day South Auckland between Ōtāhuhu and Papakura. The sale was envisioned as a way to end hostilities in the area, but it is unclear what the chiefs understood or consented to. Māori continued to live in South Auckland, unchanged by this sale.[20] Fairburn was criticised for the sheer size of the purchase, and in 1842 the Crown significantly reduced the size of his land holdings,[13] and the Crown partitioned much of the land for European settlers.[20] 10,000 acres of the Fairburn purchase was given to James Reddy Clendon in return for land at Russell where the new capital of New Zealand was established.[21] Clendon never lived or visited the area,[22] but sold 2,000 acres to the Martin brothers, who subdivided the land in the mid-1900s.[23] Much of the Martin brothers' land became modern-day Manurewa.[24]

Work on the Great South Road began in 1843, reaching as far south as Drury in 1855.[25] In the early 1860s, Great South Road was used as a military supply route between Auckland and the frontier of the Invasion of the Waikato.[26][27] Manurewa was only sparsely populated in the 1860s and 1870s. The main stop on the Great South Road for coach services was the Raglan Hotel at Woodside (modern-day Wiri). The Manurewa Highway District was formed in 1867,[28] and in 1875 the first Manurewa railway station opened.[23] The station led to growth in the area; 81 people lived in Manurewa by 1879, and a post office opened in 1884.[23] By the 1900s, much of Woodside village had moved to Manurewa, including the school that moved by 1906,[23] and joined by the Methodist Church in 1909. [23] Manurewa became a centre for the dairy industry in the early 20th century,[24] with the first creamery opening in 1905.[23]

Suburban development

[edit]

By 1915, Manurewa had grown large enough to become a town district, created from parts of the former Manurewa and Papakura road districts.[29] The area was promoted as a commuter suburb for Auckland in the early 1920s.[29] Local farmer Charles Henry Lupton was instrumental in developing the Manurewa community, serving on the town board, school and church committees, and became known as "The Father of Manurewa".[29][30] By 1937, the population of Manurewa had increased to over 1,500 people, allowing Manurewa to become a borough.[29] In 1939, a fire destroyed the Manurewa Picture Theatre, and the adjoining shops and boarding house.[30] During World War II, parts of Manurewa were used as military camps for United States Army soldiers bound for the Pacific.[31]

Manurewa experienced rapid growth in the 1950s and early 1960s after the development of the Auckland Southern Motorway,[32] developing from a semi-rural locality into a suburb of Auckland.[33] Southmall Manurewa, the third American-style mall in Auckland, was opened in 1967. The mall was initially very successful, but struggled from October 1976 onwards after the opening of the Manukau Shopping Centre.[34]

By the 1970s, Manurewa East and Weymouth had developed as suburban areas, and after the construction of Manukau Central in the 1980s, Manurewa became connected to the urban sprawl of Auckland.[32] In 1982, the Auckland Botanic Gardens opened in Manurewa.[33]

By the 2010s, Manurewa had developed a significant Pasifika population, and had the highest proportion of Māori residents in the city.[35][36]
