Māori playground and community kai space revealed at Māngere Maunga
For centuries, Te Pane o Mataoho (Māngere Maunga) has been home to many whānau and hapori (community) who have lived, worked and played on this wāhi taonga (treasured place).
Now, a new whānau ātea - family recreation space - at the mountain has opened featuring a bookable community hāngī pit.
The hāngī pit is just one of many elements of the ātea at the foot of the maunga, as well as a māra hūpara (Māori playground), basketball court and skate space.
