"Where The Heck is Remuera?"

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).

Remuera is hosting Scotland for the RWC.

Remuera is a place found in Auckland in the North Island of New Zealand. The suburb extends from Hobson Bay and the Orakei Basin.

Remuera is shown by the symbol to south-east of Auckland city centre..


Remuera has had a long history of human occupation, starting back in the early 14th century when the Maoris came to the area. They named the place O-hine-rangi - the

place of Hinerangi (girl of the sky).


The building to the right use to be Remuera’s first fire station.
